Statin Use Influence on the Occurrence of Acute Kidney Injury in Patients with Peripheral Arterial Disease.
Article in Journal of atherosclerosis and thrombosis, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
aimAcute kidney injury (AKI) is an important clinical issue in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The association between pretreatment by statins and the occurrence of AKI in patients with peripheral arterial diseases (PAD) remains unclear. Therefore, we examined the association between statin therapy and the occurrence of AKI in patients with PAD.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed data from the endovascular treatment (EVT) database in our hospital. A total of 295 patients who underwent angiography and/or intervention for PAD between October 2011 and March 2016 were enrolled and divided into two groups: those without statins (control group; N=157) and those with statins (statin group; N=138) for at least 1 month before admission. We examined the occurrence of AKI and its related factors in these patients.
resultsThe serum creatinine levels, dose of contrast medium, use of a renin-angiotensin system inhibitor, smoking habit, and blood pressure were similar in both groups. The statin group had more diabetes patients, had patients who were significantly younger, had patients with a higher body mass index (BMI), and had patients with lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol than the control group. With regard to the occurrence of AKI, there was a significantly lower incidence in the statin group compared with the control group (5% vs. 16%, p<0.05). The result of the multivariate analysis indicated that statin therapy was significantly correlated with lower occurrence rates of AKI (p<0.05).
conclusionsOur study suggests that statin therapy might prevent the occurrence of AKI after angiography and/or intervention for PAD.
