Prognostic utility of neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin in cardiac ICU: A prospective study.
Article in Indian heart journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Our study aims to evaluate the role of neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL) as an early surrogate marker in predicting acute kidney injury (AKI) and mortality in cardiac ICU patients. The study was conducted at SRN Hospital, excluding those with known renal diseases. Out of 152 patients, 56 developed AKI (cases) and 96 were our controls. Higher NGAL was associated with increased mortality rates (P = 0.0201 and 0.0255 for serum and urinary NGAL respectively). Our study concluded that NGAL measurement at admission may be a boon in improving the outcome of cardiac ICU patients.
