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

Objective We previously reported the successful outcomes in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) after continuous hemodialysis using a polymethylmethacrylate hemofilter (PMMA-CHD). The present study makes informative suggestions regarding the initiation and termination of PMMA-CHD. Methods We retrospectively studied 63 patients with SAP admitted to the intensive care unit between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2022, including 30 who received PMMA-CHD therapy for renal dysfunction. Statistical significance was evaluated using a multiple logistic regression analysis for severity scores, prognostic factor scores in the Japanese severity criteria, the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) stage, and the lung injury score (LIS). Results At the onset of blood purification therapy using PMMA-CHD, a significant increase in the KDIGO stage was shown, with a cutoff value of 2.0. The prognostic factor score and LIS at the start of blood purification therapy were significantly high, with a cutoff value of 3.0. Analyses of severity scores, the KDIGO stage, and the LIS before the start of PMMA-CHD were also increased significantly, with cutoff values of +2.0, +1.0, and +3.0, respectively. Furthermore, on analyses of improvements in values after starting PMMA-CHD, the value of KDIGO staging significantly decreased, and the cutoff value was -2.0. The prognostic factor score was also significantly decreased, with a cutoff value of -2.0. Conclusion Prognostic factor scores of the Japanese severity criteria and LIS, as well as the KDIGO stage, are valuable indicators for determining the start and end of PMMA-CHD therapy.
