Incidence, risk factors and outcomes of acute kidney injury in surgical intensive care unit octogenarians at the Jordan University Hospital.
Article in BMC geriatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAcute kidney damage (AKI) is among the most severe consequences observed in surgical intensive care units (SICUs). We aim to observe the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of acute kidney injury in SICU octogenarians.
methodsA cross-sectional retrospective study was conducted at the SICU of Jordan University Hospital (JUH), a tertiary teaching hospital in a developing country, between January 2018 and December 2019. Patients who were 80 years or older at the time of data collection were included. The definition of AKI was based on Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were reviewed.
resultsA total number of 168 patients were included. The mean age was 84.0 ± 3.8 years, and 54.8% of the participants were women. Of those, 115 (68.5%) had surgery before or during ICU stay, and 28.7% of the patients' surgeries were an emergency surgery. Also, 47.8% of surgeries were considered by anesthesia to be high-risk surgeries. A total of 55 patients (32.7%) developed AKI during their SICU stay. The factors that were significantly associated with AKI in the ICU patients included use of beta blocker [AOR: 3.7; 95% CI: 1.2-11.8; p = 0.025], and inotropes [AOR:4.0; 95% CI: 1.2-13.3; p = 0.03]. The factors that were significantly associated with mortality in the ICU included using mechanical ventilation [AOR:18.7; 95% CI: 2.4-141.9; p = 0.005] and inotropes use [AOR: 12.3; 95% CI: 1.2-120.7; p = 0.031].
conclusionsThe incidence of AKI during SICU stay in this study was 32.7% and it was significantly associated with the use of beta blockers, mechanical ventilation, and inotropes. The mortality rate among octogenarians who developed AKI during SICU stay was 36.4%. Further studies are needed globally to assess the incidence of AKI in octogenarian surgical patients and identify risk factors to provide preventative measurements and strategies.
