Nephrologist follow-up care for the acute kidney injury-chronic kidney disease continuum and clinical outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
backgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) to chronic kidney disease (CKD) continuum will increase patients' risk of mortality and long-term dialysis. The aim of the present meta-analysis is to explore the effectiveness of nephrologist care and focus on the follow-up in patients with AKI.
methodsA systematic search of studies on nephrologist care for the AKI to CKD continuum has been conducted from PubMed and other different databases. Briefly, the primary outcome is the odds ratio of mortality as well as the secondary outcome is de novo renal replacement therapy.
resultsThis research includes one randomized controlled trial (RCT) and four cohort studies comprised of 15 541 participants in total. The quantitative analysis displays a lower mortality rate with nephrologist care versus non-nephrologist care in patients' discharge after a hospitalization complicated by AKI (odds ratio: 0.768; 95% CI, 0.616-0.956). By means of Trial Sequential Analysis (TSA), we conclude that nephrologist care after an AKI episode declines 30% relative risks of all-cause mortality.
conclusionNephrologist care for AKI patients after a hospitalization significantly has reduced mortality compared to those followed up by non-nephrologists. There is a trend toward a potentially superior survival rate with nephrologist care has been going well in the recent years.
