24-Hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring 7 years after intensive care unit admission.

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
backgroundChildren who develop acute kidney injury (AKI) in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) may be at higher risk of long-term chronic kidney disease and hypertension. The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of post-discharge hypertension and albuminuria using reference-standard measurements in children admitted to the PICU, and evaluate their association with AKI.
methodsSingle-center longitudinal cohort study of children admitted to the PICU from 2005 to 2010 with 7-8 years of follow-up (n = 207). Patients were excluded if they had pre-existing chronic kidney disease, were deceased, lived > 3.5-h drive away, were unwilling/unable to provide consent/assent, or had a clotting disorder. AKI was defined by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes creatinine definition. Office blood pressure was evaluated using age, sex, and height-based percentiles. Hypertension was defined using 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). Albuminuria was defined as first morning urine albumin:creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g. Prevalence of blood pressure outcomes was calculated. The association between AKI and outcomes was evaluated using multivariable regression.
resultsSixty of 207 (29%) children developed AKI during PICU admission. Overall, 6% had albuminuria and 21% had elevated office blood pressure or worse. One-hundred-and-seventy-seven (86%) patients had successful ABPM data. Of these, 10 (6%) had white coat, 18 (10%) had masked, and 5 (3%) had ambulatory hypertension. There was no statistically significant difference in outcomes across AKI stages.
conclusionsBlood pressure abnormalities are common in children 7 years after PICU admission. Future studies with longer follow-up are needed to further evaluate the association between AKI and hypertension. A higher-resolution version of the graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.
