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
backgroundThe adoption of the 2021 CKD-EPIcr equation for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation provided a race-free eGFR calculation. However, the discriminative performance for AKI risk has been rarely validated. We aimed to evaluate the differences in acute kidney injury (AKI) prediction or reclassification power according to the three eGFR equations.
methodsWe performed a retrospective observational study within a tertiary hospital from 2011 to 2021. Acute kidney injury was defined according to KDIGO serum creatinine criteria. Glomerular filtration rate estimates were calculated by three GFR estimating equations: 2009 and 2021 CKD-EPIcr, and EKFC. In three equations, AKI prediction performance was evaluated with area under receiver operator curves (AUROC) and reclassification power was evaluated with net reclassification improvement analysis.
resultsA total of 187,139 individuals, including 27,447 (14.7%) AKI and 159,692 (85.3%) controls, were enrolled. In the multivariable regression prediction model, the 2009 CKD-EPIcr model (continuous eGFR model 2, 0.7583 [0.755-0.7617]) showed superior performance in AKI prediction to the 2021 CKD-EPIcr (0.7564 [0.7531-0.7597], < 0.001) or EKFC model in AUROC (0.7577 [0.7543-0.761], < 0.001). Moreover, in reclassification of AKI, the 2021 CKD-EPIcr and EKFC models showed a worse classification performance than the 2009 CKD-EPIcr model. (- 7.24 [- 8.21-- 6.21], - 2.38 [- 2.72-- 1.97]).
conclusionRegarding AKI risk stratification, the 2009 CKD-EPIcr equation showed better discriminative performance compared to the 2021 CKD-EPIcr equation in the study population.
