Acute kidney injury in hospitalized children in 20 hospitals of China's Hunan Province: a cross-sectional survey.
Article in Renal failure, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThe incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in pediatric patients has been increasing over the years, and AKI significantly impacts children's health and quality of life. This article reviews the current epidemiological research on pediatric AKI.
methodsThe clinical data of hospitalized children aged 0 to 14 years from 20 different hospitals in Hunan Province, China, collected from December 2017 to February 2018, were analyzed. The incidence rate, misdiagnosis rate, main causes, and medical costs of AKI in hospitalized children were examined.
resultsA total of 29,639 patients were included, with an AKI incidence rate of 4.34% (1286/29,639). Among the 1286 AKI patients, 863 (67.11%) were classified as AKI stage 1324 (25.19%) as AKI stage 2, and 99 (7.7%) as AKI stage 3. AKI patients had significantly longer hospital stays [6.0 (4.0, 10) days vs. 6.0 (4.0, 8.0) days,
conclusionThe incidence and missed diagnosis rates of AKI in hospitalized children were high. AKI prolongs hospital stays, increases hospitalization costs, and increases the risk of mortality in children.
