Relation of Baseline Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) Levels and Contrast-Induced Nephropathy following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention among Chronic Kidney Disease Patients.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundThe risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) following coronary intervention is particularly high among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Among these patients, baseline neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), a marker of tubular damage, reflects the severity of renal impairment. We evaluated whether the baseline serum NGAL level may be a marker for the development of CI-AKI following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
methodsEighty-eight CKD patients treated with PCI were included. Serum NGAL levels were drawn upon hospital admission. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) methods were used to identify the optimal sensitivity and specificity for the observed NGAL level compared with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated for patients with CI-AKI.
resultsOverall CI-AKI incidence was 43%. Baseline serum NGAL levels were significantly higher in patients with CI-AKI than in patients without CI-AKI (150 vs. 103 ng/mL,
conclusionBaseline serum NGAL levels in CKD patients may identify a high-risk population for CI-AKI following PCI. Further studies on larger populations are required to validate the potential utility of NGAL measurements in monitoring specific CKD-associated conditions.
