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

Introduction: Coronavirus disease can affect the renal system in various forms ranging from mild proteinuria to acute kidney injury, some even needing renal replacement therapy. This study aimed to find out the prevalence of acute kidney injury in patients admitted with COVID-19 at a tertiary care centre. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was done in patients admitted in COVID-19 ward in our hospital from July 2021 to June 2022. Ethical approval was obtained from the Institutional Review Committee (Reference number: 066-077/078). The serum creatinine level was used for the diagnosis of acute kidney injury. Convenience sampling method was used. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated. Results: Out of 80 patients with COVID-19, the prevalence of acute kidney injury was 25 (31.25%) (21.09-41.41, 95% Confidence Interval). Conclusions: The prevalence of acute kidney injury in COVID-19 patients was similar to other studies done in similar settings. Keywords: acute kidney injury; COVID-19; Nepal.
