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

backgroundAssessment of kidney function is fundamental to optimize drug dosing. The Cockcroft-Gault (CG) equation is widely used but has questionable validity for females, changing renal function, and the critical ill. Eight-hour urine collections (U

resultsOne hundred collections drawn from 85 unique patients (50.6% male, median age 55 [41-70] years, intensive care unit 88%) were included in the analysis. Median serum creatinine was 0.76 (0.52-1.06) mg/dL and blood urea nitrogen was 20 (14-28) mg/dL at time of collection
