Lithium-Associated Kidney Failure: Predictors and Outcomes.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: Despite the widespread use of lithium for bipolar disorders and depression, little is known about the characteristics of patients with lithium-associated kidney failure receiving kidney replacement therapy (KRT). Methods: We conducted a retrospective study using the Australian and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant Registry (ANZDATA) to investigate the predictors and outcomes of patients with lithium-associated kidney failure receiving KRT. Results: A total of 437 patients with lithium-associated kidney failure were compared to 1280 ANZDATA allocated controls of patients with kidney failure not associated with lithium. Patients with lithium-associated kidney failure commenced KRT at significantly older age (62 ± 10 vs. 58 ± 15 years; Conclusion: Lithium-associated kidney failure represents a unique cohort which is predominantly older, female, European, with a higher SES and less comorbidities. Despite this, there are no differences in survival. Given the lower rate of transplantation, barriers to transplantation need further exploration.
