Preoperative serum selenium predicts acute kidney injury after adult cardiac surgery.

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 relationship between serum selenium (Se) and acute kidney injury after adult cardiac surgery (CSA-AKI) remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the association of preoperative Se level with incident CSA-AKI. METHOD AND
resultsA retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients who underwent cardiac surgery. The primary outcome was incident CSA-AKI. Multivariable logistic regression models and natural cubic splines were used to estimate the association of Se levels and primary outcome. A total of 453 patient with a mean age of 62.97 years were included. Among all patients, 159 (35.1%) incident cases of CSA-AKI were identified. The level of preoperative Se concentration in patients with CSA-AKI was significant lower than that in patients without CSA-AKI. The higher preoperative Se level was significantly associated with decreased risk of CSA-AKI (adjusted OR 0.91, 95% CI: 0.87-0.99). Dose-response relationship curve revealed a nearly L-shape correlation between serum Se selenium levels and incident CSA-AKI.
conclusionOur study suggested that a higher level of serum Se was significantly associated with lower risk of CSA-AKI. Further prospective studies are needed to clarify the causal relationship between serum Se level and incident CSA-AKI.
