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

The presence of fever has long been a warning sign of severe urinary tract infection (UTI). However, we previously identified that inpatients with afebrile UTI had an increased risk of developing acute kidney injury (AKI). After expanding this cohort, 1132 inpatients with UTI diagnosed between January 2006 and April 2019 were analyzed. Overall, 159 (14%) of these patients developed AKI; bacteremia, urolithiasis, septic shock, hypertension, lower baseline renal function, marked leukocytosis, and the absence of fever were independently linked to AKI. When we further studied the cohort of inpatients with fever during hospitalization, we identified a group of "delayed fever" UTI inpatients who did not have fever as their initial presentation. Compared to patients presenting with fever at the emergency department, patients with delayed fever tended to be younger and have less frequent infection with
