1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

STUDY

objectiveThe primary objective was to evaluate the performance of the Cockcroft-Gault (CG) equation with different body weights (BWs) compared to a measured creatinine clearance (mCrCl) in an intensive care unit (ICU) population with and without augmented renal clearance (ARC).

designMulticenter, retrospective cohort.

settingTwo ICUs in the United States and four ICUs from a previous international observational analysis. PATIENTS: Adult ICU patients admitted from January 1, 2010 to July 30, 2020 with at least one mCrCl collected within the initial 10 days of hospitalization were eligible for inclusion. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN

resultsThe primary outcome was the performance of the CG equation in ARC (mCrCl≥130 ml/min/1.73 m

conclusionsThe CG-adjusted BW had the best performance in the non-ARC patients, while CG performed poorly with any BW in ARC patients. Although the CG equation remains the standard equation for estimating CrCl in the ICU setting, a new, validated equation is needed for patients with ARC.
