Post-Diarrheal Acute Kidney Injury During an Epidemic in Monsoon - A Retrospective Study from a Tertiary Care Hospital.
Article in Indian journal of nephrology. 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
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a severe complication of acute diarrheal diseases; however, there is limited data on post-diarrheal AKI (PD-AKI) epidemiology and outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the clinicodemographic profile and outcomes of PD-AKI in our hospital. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 93 patients admitted with PD-AKI during a diarrheal illness epidemic. Patients were stratified based on the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) AKI stage and quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) score. Clinicodemographic data and outcomes were recorded and analyzed. Results: The mean age of the patients was 45.7 ± 11.9 years, with a majority being men (n = 55, 59%). All patients presented with watery diarrhea, 85% (n = 79) had vomiting, and 66% (n = 61) presented in shock. At presentation, 59% were oliguric, while 32% were anuric. KDIGO stage 3 AKI was observed in 71% (n = 66) of patients. Dialytic support was required in 29% (n = 27) of cases. The mortality rate was 6.5% (n = 6), mostly due to refractory shock, while the remaining patients recovered. Risk factor analysis demonstrated a higher qSOFA score, and peak serum creatinine levels were associated with an increased likelihood of requiring renal replacement therapy and delayed renal recovery. Conclusion: This study provides valuable insights into the clinicodemographic characteristics and outcomes of PD-AKI. The high prevalence of severe AKI emphasizes the importance of early recognition and appropriate management strategies for these patients.
