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

purposeAcute kidney injury (AKI) following anticoagulant application has received growing attention as a significant emerging complication of anticoagulation. Nevertheless, there remains a lack of real-world studies to compare the incidence, clinical features, and prognosis of AKI across different anticoagulant regimens.

methodsDisproportionality analysis and Bayesian analysis were used to identify suspected AKI cases after different anticoagulant use within the Food and Drug Administration's Adverse Event Reporting System from January 2004 to March 2023. The time to onset, fatality, and hospitalization rates of anticoagulant-associated AKI were also investigated.

resultsWe identified 9313 anticoagulant-associated AKIs, which appeared to influence mostly patients over 65 years old (65.37%). Lepirudin displayed a stronger AKI association than others, based on the highest reporting odds ratio (ROR = 6.66, 95% CI = 3.97-11.18), proportional reporting ratio (PRR = 6.08, χ2 = 69.12), and empirical Bayes geometric mean (EBGM = 6.08, the lower 90% one-sided CI = 3.95). Warfarin showed the slightest association with AKI in oral anticoagulants, lower than any direct oral anticoagulants excluding apixaban. Edoxaban exhibited the highest potential renal risk among direct oral anticoagulants, with an ROR of 3.32 (95% CI = 2.95-3.72). The median time to AKI onset was 36 (IQR 7-205) days following the initiation of anticoagulation therapy, and most AKI cases occurred within the first month.

conclusionParticular attention should be directed toward monitoring renal function in individuals receiving anticoagulants, including warfarin and direct oral anticoagulants, as well as other anticoagulant agents. This diligence is particularly imperative within the first month after anticoagulant administration for individuals with a tendency for AKI.
