Acute Kidney Injury after Cardiac Surgery: Prediction, Prevention, and Management.
Review in Anesthesiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 102 papers, 5 of them syntheses 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
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in cardiac surgery patients, with a reported incidence of 20 to 30%. The development of AKI is associated with worse short- and long-term mortality, and longer hospital length of stay. The pathogenesis of cardiac surgery-associated AKI is poorly understood but likely involves an interplay between preoperative comorbidities and perioperative stressors. AKI is commonly diagnosed by using increases in serum creatinine or decreased urine output and staged using a standardized definition such as the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes classification. Novel biomarkers under investigation may provide earlier detection and better prediction of AKI, enabling mitigating therapies early in the perioperative period. Recent clinical trials of cardiac surgery patients have demonstrated the benefit of goal-directed oxygen delivery, avoidance of hyperthermic perfusion and specific fluid and medication strategies. This review article highlights both advances and limitations regarding the prevention, prediction, and treatment of cardiac surgery-associated AKI.
