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

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is spreading rapidly worldwide. Here, we review recently published studies on COVID-19-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) in China. The pooled incidence of AKI in all reported COVID-19 patients was 6.5%, with a much higher rate in patients from the intensive care unit (32.5%). AKI is associated with the severity of COVID-19 and mortality rates, which is similar to other kidney abnormalities including proteinuria and hematuria. The renal tubule is the main site of injury in COVID-19 patients, and the etiology of renal impairment in COVID-19 patients likely is diverse and multifactorial. Apart from direct viral attack via angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 and transmembrane serine proteases 2, hypoxia and hypercoagulability also may contribute to the occurrence of renal injury. To date, there is only randomized controlled trial evidence to support the use of dexamethasone in patients requiring oxygen therapy and remdesivir for shortening the time to recovery, with no specific treatment for COVID-19-associated AKI. Studies researching kidney pathologies or reporting renal outcome and prognosis are in urgent need. Further studies are urgently warranted to identify risk factors, to predict prognosis and renal outcome, to explore the exact mechanisms of renal injury, and to suggest targeted interventions.
