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

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveAcute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in hospitalized pediatric patients. Previous studies focused on adults found that proteinuria detected during an admission urinalysis is fit to serve as an indicator for AKI and associated clinical outcomes. The objective of this study is to evaluate if proteinuria on the first day of hospital services in hospitalized children is associated with AKI, need for renal replacement therapy, shock and/or antibiotic use, critical care services, and all-cause mortality at 30 days, hypothesizing that it is associated with these outcomes.

methodsThis is a retrospective cohort study using TriNetX electronic health record data of patients 2 to 18 years of age who underwent urinalysis laboratory testing on hospital admission, had three subsequent days of hospital or critical care services billing codes and creatinine laboratory values, and no pre-existing renal-related complex chronic condition. This study evaluated for the frequency, odds, and severity of AKI as defined by Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes modified criteria and assessed for associated clinical outcomes.

resultsThis study included 971 pediatric subjects [435 (44.7%) with proteinuria]. Proteinuria on the first day of hospital services was associated with an increased odds for higher severity AKI on any day of hospitalization (odds ratio [OR] 2.41, CI 1.8-3.23, p<0.001), need for renal replacement therapy (OR 4.58, CI 1.69-12.4, p = 0.001), shock and/or antibiotic use (OR 1.34, CI 1.03-1.75, p = 0.033), and all-cause mortality at 30 days post-admission (OR 10.0, CI 1.25-80.5, p = 0.013).

conclusionChildren with proteinuria on the first day of hospital care services may have an increased odds of higher severity AKI, need for renal replacement therapy, shock and/or antibiotic use, and all-cause mortality at 30 days post-admission, with no significant association found for critical care services, mechanical intubation, or inotrope or vasopressor use.
