1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

introductionPeri-procedural i.v. fluid administration is important for the prevention of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). However, standardized fluid management protocols may not be suitable for all patients. We therefore wished to determine whether an individualized fluid administration protocol guided by measuring extracellular water (ECW) using bioimpedance analysis (BIA) would be safe and would reduce the incidence CI-AKI compared to a standardized fluid administration prescription.

methodsIn this pilot, randomized, parallel-group, single-blind, controlled trial, we compared the effect of BIA-guided isotonic bicarbonate administration according to the ratio of ECW to total body water (ECW/TBW) to our standard isotonic bicarbonate protocol in regard to the safety and efficacy of preventing CI-AKI in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing elective cardiac angiography. Our primary outcome was the incidence of CI-AKI, which was defined as a ≥0.3 mg/dl or 150% increase in serum creatinine concentration within 48 to 72 hours after cardiac angiography

resultsWe studied 61 patients, 30 in the bioimpedance group and 31 in the control group. Age was similar (72.5 ± 7 vs. 71.4 ± 7.9 years), as were body mass index (25.5 vs. 25.8 kg/m

conclusionsThe overall incidence of CI-AKI after cardiac angiography in our patients with mild-to-moderate renal insufficiency was lower than anticipated. Isotonic bicarbonate administration guided by bioimpedance measurements was safe, and probably led to a lower incidence of CI-AKI, although this not reach statistical significance.
