The relationship between perioperative serum albumin and contrast-induced acute kidney injury in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention.

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
objectiveContrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a common complication in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Studies have shown that perioperative serum albumin levels may play a role in the occurrence of CI-AKI. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of perioperative serum albumin (delta albumin or &Alb) levels on the occurrence and long-term prognosis of CI-AKI patients after PCI.
methodsA total of 959 patients who underwent PCI between January 2017 and January 2019 were selected for this study. A receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of the &Alb level for predicting CI-AKI after PCI. Patients were divided into two groups based on the optimal cut-off value: the high &Alb group (&Alb ≥ 4.55 g/L) and the control group (&Alb < 4.55 g/L). The incidences of CI-AKI and major adverse cardiac events (MACEs, including all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and target vessel revascularization) were compared between the groups. Cox regression analysis was used to identify predictors of long-term prognosis after PCI.
resultsOf the 959 patients, 147 (15.3%) developed CI-AKI after PCI. The CI-AKI group had a greater level of &Alb than did the non-CI-AKI group [(6.14 (3.90-9.10) versus 3.48 (4.31-6.57), P < 0.01)]. The incidence of CI-AKI in the high &Alb group was significantly greater than that in the low group (23.6% versus 8.3%, P < 0.01). After a 1-year follow-up, the incidence of MACEs was significantly greater in the high &Alb group than in the low group (18.6% versus 14.5%, P = 0.030). Cox regression analysis confirmed that CI-AKI was an independent predictor of MACEs at the 1-year follow-up (HR 1.43, 95% CI 1.04-1.96, P = 0.028). In addition, patients with low preoperative serum albumin levels had s significantly greater incidence of MACEs than did those with high preoperative serum albumin levels (23.2% versus 19.5%, P = 0.013).
conclusionIn summary, high baseline &Alb levels are an independent risk factor for CI-AKI in patients after PCI. The occurrence of CI-AKI in the perioperative period is also an independent predictor of long-term prognosis after PCI. These findings highlight the importance of monitoring &Alb levels and taking steps to prevent CI-AKI in patients undergoing PCI.
