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

introductionNearly one-third of patients undergoing cardiac surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) experience cardiac surgery-associated (CSA) acute kidney injury (AKI); 5% require renal replacement therapy. ANG-3777 is a hepatocyte growth factor mimetic.

methodsGUARD is a 240-patient, multicenter, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trial to assess the efficacy and safety of ANG-3777 in patients at elevated pre-surgery risk for AKI undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or heart valve repair/replacement requiring CPB. Subjects are randomized 1:1 to receive ANG-3777 (2 mg/kg) or placebo. Study drug is dosed via 4 daily intravenous 30-minute infusions. The first dose is administered less than 4 hours after completing CPB, second at 24 ± 2 hours post-CPB, with two subsequent doses at 24 ± 2 hours after the previous dose.

resultsThe primary efficacy endpoint is percent change from baseline serum creatinine to mean area under the curve from days 2 through 6. Secondary endpoints include change in estimated glomerular filtration rate from baseline to day 30, the proportion of patients diagnosed with AKI by stage through day 5, and the length of CSA-AKI hospitalization. Safety will include adverse events and laboratory measures.

conclusionThis phase 2 study of ANG-3777 provides data to develop a phase 3 registrational study in this medically complex condition.
