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

Background: Acute kidney disease (AKD) defines patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) or subacute loss of kidney function lasting for >7 days. Little is known about the prognosis of AKD in hospitalized patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors and prognosis of AKD and to compare different types of acute/subacute renal impairment among Chinese inpatients. Methods: Complete data were available for 71 041 patients for a range of 5-63 months. AKI and AKD were diagnosed based on the Acute Disease Quality Initiative criteria of 2017. Results: Of 71 041 inpatients, 16 098 (22.7%) patients developed AKI or AKD; 5895 (8.3%) AKI patients recovered within 7 days, 5623 (7.9%) AKI patients developed AKD and 4580 (6.4%) patients developed AKD without AKI. Mortality was proportional to stages of AKI and AKD ( Conclusions: AKD and AKD stages are useful clinical definitions for clinical practice, as they predict unfortunate clinical outcomes such as overall long-term mortality and CKD. Research activities should focus on AKD.
