Renal Doppler Ultrasound in the Evaluation of Renal Function in Patients with Sepsis.
Article in Applied bionics and biomechanics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 6 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
This study was aimed to explore the renal Doppler ultrasound in the evaluation of renal function in patients with sepsis. Fifty patients with sepsis or septic shock were classified into the acute kidney injury (AKI) group (n =25) and the non-AKI group (n =25) according to whether they had AKI. The measurements of renal resistance index (RRI) and power Doppler ultrasound (PDU) were performed on all patients within 7 days of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). The patient's renal function was assessed. The results showed that the RRI of the two groups showed a slight upward trend over time, and the RRI of the AKI group was higher than that of the non-AKI group. After 7 days in AKI group, the areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of RRI were 0.745, 0.683, 0.729, 0.856, 0.793, 0.819, and 0.836 (P <0.05). There were no statistically considerable differences in areas under ROC curves between the two groups (P >0.05). The grouping of AKI and the time were both fixed effects, and the individual patients were randomized effects. Besides, the linear models were statistically analyzed. The results showed that the differences between the two groups were statistically insignificant (P >0.05). There was no significant difference in the PDU scores measured at different times within 7 days after ICU admission between the two groups (P >0.05). In conclusion, renal Doppler ultrasound had a good adoption effect in the evaluation of the renal function of patients with severe sepsis, which is worth promoting in clinical practice.
