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

purposeTraumatic kidney injury can be treated surgically or nonsurgically. Nonsurgical treatment options include angiography, embolization, and conservative treatment. We aimed to identify factors that help in making clinical decisions on treatment plans for patients with traumatic kidney injury caused by blunt trauma.

methodsThe study included 377 patients aged ≥18 years with traumatic kidney injury caused by blunt abdominal trauma admitted to the emergency room of Wonju Severance Christian Hospital between January 2008 and July 2020. Medical records, laboratory test results, and computed tomography results were retrospectively reviewed.

resultsMultivariable logistic analysis showed diastolic blood pressure at admission and disruption of Gerota's fascia were significantly associated with surgical treatment, and that perinephric hematoma rim distance was the only significant indicator favoring embolization. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that angiography and embolization should be considered when hematoma size exceeds 2.97 cm.

conclusionWhen a patient with traumatic kidney injury due to blunt trauma visits an emergency room, even when vital signs are stable, Gerota's fascia should be checked by computed tomography prior to deciding on surgical treatment, and angiographic embolization should be considered if perinephric hematoma rim distance exceeds 2.97 cm.
