Clinical epidemiology and outcomes of emergency department-acute kidney injury: A systematic review.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Over half of all community-acquired acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) initially presented to emergency department (ED), but emergency department acute kidney injury (ED-AKI) is poorly characterised, poorly understood with no systematic review, often under-recognized and under-managed. Objective: To review the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of ED-AKI, and risk factors of post-ED-AKI mortality globally. Methods: We included published prospective or retrospective observational studies, controlled trials, and systematic reviews reporting AKI in adult ED attendees within 24 h of ED admission. Iatrogenic causes of AKI from medical interventions were excluded. We used PubMed to identify articles from 1996 to August 14, 2021, and adopted the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) Quality Assessment Tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies to assess risk of bias. We used a Forest plot to present pooled ED-AKI incidence rates and I Results: Using 24 h from ED admission as the definition for ED-AKI we identified six articles from 2005 to 2018 in high-income settings and one article with a 48-h timeframe. The pooled incidence of ED-AKI was 20 per 1000 adult ED attendances. Risk factors for ED-AKI included increasing age, nursing home residence, previous hospital admission within 30 days, discharge diagnosis of diabetes, obstructive uropathy, sepsis, gastrointestinal medical conditions, high serum creatinine, bilirubin, C-reactive protein, white blood cell, alanine aminotransferase, low serum sodium or albumin on admission, poor premorbid renal function, antibiotic use, active malignancy, lung disease, hyperlipidaemia, and infection. Crude, all-cause 24-h mortality rate was 4.56 % and the one-year mortality rate was 35.04 %. Increasing age and comorbidities including cardiovascular disease and malignancy were associated with higher mortality rates. Conclusion: The review reveals a paucity of relevant literature which calls for further research, increased vigilance, red flag identification, and standardized management protocols for ED-AKI.
