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

backgroundWe evaluated the prognostic impact of AKI duration on the 1-year mortality rate in elderly patients diagnosed based on the 48-hour and 7-day changes in serum creatinine (Scr) levels recommended by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines.

methodsThis retrospective study was conducted from 2007 to 2018 on elderly patients in the Geriatric Department of the Chinese PLA General Hospital. Based on the two diagnostic criteria in the KDIGO guidelines, the patients were divided into a 48-hour diagnostic window and a 7-day diagnostic window group, and into transient AKI (lasting 1-2 days) and persistent AKI (lasting 3-6 days, and ≥ 7 days) based on the time at which the Scr level returned to the baseline value. The primary outcome was the 1-year mortality rate after AKI.

resultsIn total, 688 patients were enrolled, including 367 (53.3%) with a 48-hour and 321 (46.7%) with a 7-day diagnostic window. Of the 688 patients, in the 48-hour window group, 12.0% had transient AKI, 31.1% had lasting 3-6 days, and 56.9% had lasting ≥ 7 days; in the 7-day window group, 5.3% had transient AKI, 24.0% had lasting 3-6 days, and 70.7% had lasting ≥ 7 days. Overall, 332 patients (33.6%) died within 1 year, including 189 (51.5%) in the 48-hour and 143 (44.5%) in the 7-day diagnostic window group. After adjusting for multiple covariates, AKI duration was associated with a significantly higher 1-year mortality rate (3-6 days: HR = 3.535; 95% CI = 1.685-7.417, P = 0.001; ≥ 7 days: HR = 2.400; 95% CI = 1.152-5.001, P = 0.019) in the 48-hour diagnostic window group, but it did not differ in the 7-day diagnostic window group (P = 0.452).

conclusionsPersistent AKI was common in elderly hospitalized patients, accounting for 88% and 95% of patients with 48-hour and 7-day diagnostic windows, respectively. Moreover, AKI duration was associated with different clinical outcomes depending on the diagnostic window. Further studies should focus on the mechanism underlying the relationship of AKI outcomes with diagnostic criteria.
