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

introductionNephrotoxic medication (NTM) is one of the common causes of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill infants. Current knowledge about the long-term effects of NTM exposure and associated AKI during the neonatal period and early infancy is limited. Hence, we aimed to explore the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) after NTM-AKI in this age group.

methodsWe performed a cross-sectional study including children 2-7 years of age, who had a history of high NTM exposure during NICU hospitalization. Cases and controls were defined as children who developed AKI and who did not develop AKI after NTM exposure, respectively. The primary outcome of interest was to explore the prevalence of composite CKD. In addition, we explored differences in urinary biomarker kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) between the groups.

resultsWe enrolled 48 children, 18 cases and 30 controls in which 25/48 (52%) had at least one finding of CKD. The composite CKD outcome tended to be higher in cases vs controls (61.1% vs. 46.6%, odds ratio = 1.79 (95% confidence interval 0.54-5.8)); however, this was not statistically significant. Median urinary KIM-1 value trended higher in controls, 0.367(0.23-0.59) vs. 0.20 (IQR 0.11-0.47), which was not statistically significant.

conclusionIn this study, 52% of children exposed to NTM had at least one marker of CKD at a median age of 5 years. Multicenter, large prospective studies are needed to improve our understanding of the natural course of NTM-AKI and to determine risk factors and strategies to reduce CKD in this high-risk population.
