Urinary TIMP-2*IGFBP-7 to diagnose acute kidney injury in children receiving cisplatin.
Article in Pediatric nephrology (Berlin, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundCisplatin is associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) and electrolyte abnormalities. Urine tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP-2) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP-7) may be early cisplatin-AKI biomarkers.
methodsWe conducted a 12-site prospective cohort study with pediatric patients treated with cisplatin (May 2013-December 2017). Blood and urine (measured for TIMP-2, IGFBP-7) were collected pre-cisplatin, 24-h post-cisplatin, and near hospital discharge during the first or second cisplatin cycle (early visit (EV)) and during second-to-last or last cisplatin cycle (late visit (LV)). PRIMARY OUTCOME: serum creatinine (SCr)-defined AKI (≥ stage 1).
resultsAt EV (median (interquartile (IQR)) age: 6 (2-12) years; 78 (50%) female), 46/156 (29%) developed AKI; at LV, 22/127 (17%) experienced AKI. At EV, TIMP-2, IGFBP-7, and TIMP-2*IGFBP-7 pre-cisplatin infusion concentrations were significantly higher in participants with vs. those without AKI. At EV and LV, biomarker concentrations were significantly lower in participants with vs. those without AKI at post-infusion and near-hospital discharge. Biomarker values normalized to urine creatinine were higher in patients with AKI compared to without (LV post-infusion, median (IQR): TIMP-2*IGFBP-7: 0.28 (0.08-0.56) vs. 0.04 (0.02-0.12) (ng/mg creatinine)
conclusionsTIMP-2*IGFBP-7 were poor to modest at detecting AKI post-cisplatin. Additional studies are needed to determine whether raw biomarker values or biomarker values normalized to urinary creatinine are more strongly associated with patient outcomes.
