Association of Preoperative Diuretic Use With Early Acute Kidney Injury in Infants With Biventricular Hearts Following Cardiac Surgery.

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
Background Diuretics are used to manage congestive heart failure in infants with congenital heart disease. Adult data indicate that preoperative diuretic use increases the risk of cardiac surgery associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI). We have sought to understand if preoperative diuretics in infants increases the risk of CS-AKI. Methods and Results This is a single-center retrospective study of infants (1-12 months) who had CS requiring cardiopulmonary bypass between 2013 and 2018. The diagnosis and severity of CS-AKI was defined according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes guidelines. Three hundred patients were included (mean 6 months, SD 2.4, range 1.2-12.9 months). A total of 149 (49.7%) patients were diagnosed with CS-AKI (stage 1: 80 [54%], stage 2: 57 [38%], stage 3: 12 [8%]). Logistic regression analysis showed preoperative diuretics were not associated with CS-AKI (odds ratio [OR], 0.79; 95% CI, 0.43-1.44;
