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

purposeTraditionally, the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) stages acute kidney injury (AKI) into three stages based on the highest severity of increase in serum creatinine (SC) or urine output (UO) criteria. Clinically, however, the two criteria do not provide equivalent information. Thus, we aimed to develop a cumulative renal score (the sum of the highest KDIGO SC and UO severity stages) for staging of AKI, expanding the original three KDIGO stages to six stages. We hypothesized that the cumulative renal score would more accurately describe AKI severity and outcomes. PATIENTS AND

methodsCritically ill adult patients were identified from the Multi-parameter Intelligent Monitoring in Intensive Care III Database. The primary outcome was hospital mortality. Logistic regression was used to explore the association between cumulative renal score and hospital mortality.

resultsA total of 17,404 critically ill adult patients were enrolled. Patients with higher cumulative renal scores had greater hospital mortality than patients with lower cumulative renal scores (score 0, 7.6%; score 1, 9.3%; score 2, 12.5%; score 3, 18.9%; score 4, 27.1%; score 5, 34.7%; score 6, 46.8%, p < 0.001). After adjustment for significant covariates, relative to cumulative renal score 0, cumulative renal scores 2-6 were associated with increased hospital mortality. Within the traditional KDIGO stage 2 AKI, when compared with cumulative renal score 2, cumulative renal score 4 had increased hospital mortality. Within the traditional KDIGO stage 3 AKI, when compared with cumulative renal score 3, cumulative renal score 6 had increased hospital mortality.

conclusionOur study demonstrates that the KDIGO SC and UO criteria have a cumulative effect on AKI severity staging. The cumulative renal score improves the traditional KDIGO AKI staging by applying the two sets of criteria sequentially and provides more insight into the relationship between AKI and outcomes.
