Preoperative use of furosemide may increase the incidence of acute kidney injury after coronary artery bypass grafting: a propensity score-matched study.
Article in General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectivesFurosemide is usually administered before the Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) to improve water-sodium retention. However, no final conclusions are available on the postoperative renal outcome of furosemide. We evaluated the effect of preoperative furosemide on acute kidney injury (AKI) after CABG.
methodsWe recorded the use of furosemide 14 days before surgery in all patients who underwent CABG from 2016 to 2017. Patients were divided into furosemide (F) group and non-furosemide (NF) group according to preoperative use of furosemide. A 1:1 propensity score matching was performed. Multivariate analyses were conducted to determine risk factors for AKI after CABG.
resultsOverall, 974 patients were included in the study, of which 82 cases were complicated with postoperative AKI. The incidence of AKI was significantly increased in F group than NF group (28.9% vs. 7.4%, p = 0.000). After adjusting for risk factors, the incidence of AKI in the F group was 5.34 times more than the NF group (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.45-11.64; p = 0.000). The incidence of AKI increased significantly when the cumulative dosage of furosemide exceeded 110 mg (odds ratio [OR] 6.23; 95% CI 2.07-18.74, p = 0.001) and 250 mg (OR 8.31; 95% CI 2.87-24.02, p = 0.000). After the propensity-matching group analysis, same results were obtained.
conclusionsThe incidence of AKI after CABG was related to the use of preoperative furosemide, and it increased exponentially with the increase of cumulative dose of furosemide. This provides guidance for the dose of preoperative furosemide.
