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

objectiveThe delayed increase in serum creatinine levels poses challenges in the timely diagnosis of acute kidney injury. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum angiotensinogen and urinary angiotensinogen levels and the prognosis of renal function in patients diagnosed with acute kidney injury.

methodsA total of 79 newly diagnosed acute kidney injury patients aged 18 years and older were enrolled. Serum angiotensinogen and urinary angiotensinogen levels were measured at the onset of the disease, as well as on the 15th and 30th days of follow-up. After 3 months, renal function was evaluated by measuring serum creatinine levels.

resultsAmong the acute kidney injury patients, those in Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes stage 3 exhibited significantly higher urinary angiotensinogen/urine creatinine levels compared with stages 1 and 2 patients at the time of diagnosis (p<0.05). Furthermore, a positive correlation was observed between the urinary angiotensinogen/urine creatinine level at the time of diagnosis and the serum creatinine level at the third month (r=0.408, p=0.048).

conclusionThe findings suggest that urinary angiotensinogen levels can serve as an indicator of the severity of acute kidney injury. Monitoring urinary angiotensinogen levels could potentially contribute to the prognosis assessment and management of acute kidney injury patients.
