Risk of acute kidney injury by initiation of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in hospitalised patients treated with diuretics and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors.

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.
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
objectivesConcurrent use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) with diuretics and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASI) has been associated with an increased risk of developing acute kidney injury (AKI) in the ambulatory setting. There is currently no information on AKI prevalence in hospitalised patients where initiation of NSAID prescription is quite frequent. The aim of our study was to assess the prevalence of AKI in patients treated with diuretics and/or RAASI in the hospital setting when NSAIDs are initiated.
methodsThis was a retrospective single centre study on inpatients receiving triple or dual association treatment. AKI was established according to evidence-based clinical practice guidelines in kidney disease (Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcome, KDIGO) using the following criteria : increase in serum creatinine (SCr) by ≥0.3 mg/dL (or ≥26.5 µmol/L) within 48 hours, or increase in SCr to ≥1.5 times baseline occurring within the last 7 days.
resultsAKI was identified in 5 of 151 patients (3.3%) treated with both diuretics and RAASI in whom NSAIDs were initiated, with a 49 µM average increase in SCr within 48 hours compared with baseline. AKI was identified in 2 of 117 (1.7%) patients treated with diuretics and NSAIDs, and in 1 of 427 (0.23%) patients treated with RAASI and NSAIDs. The average increase in SCr within 2 days was 29 µM. No AKI was identified in a control group of 1886 patients treated with diuretics and RAASI but with no initiation of NSAIDs during their hospitalisation.
conclusionInitiation of NSAID therapy in hospitalised patients already being treated with diuretics and RAASI is a risk factor for AKI. The risk of AKI with the triple association appeared higher than with the dual association treatment.
