1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesThis study aims to identify risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with ureterolithiasis and to develop a predictive model for early AKI detection in this population.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 1,016 patients with ureterolithiasis who presented to our outpatient emergency department between January 2021 and December 2022. Using multifactorial logistic regression, we identified independent risk factors for AKI and constructed a nomogram to predict AKI risk. The predictive model's efficacy was assessed through the area under the ROC curve, calibration curves, Hosmer-Lemeshow (HL) test, and decision curve analysis (DCA).

resultsAKI was diagnosed in 18.7% of the patients. Independent risk factors identified included age, fever, diabetes, hyperuricemia, bilateral calculi, functional solitary kidney, self-medication, and prehospital delay. The nomogram demonstrated excellent discriminatory capabilities, with AUCs of 0.818 (95% CI, 0.775-0.861) for the modeling set and 0.782 (95% CI, 0.708-0.856) for the validation set. Both calibration curve and HL test results confirmed strong concordance between the model's predictions and actual observations. DCA highlighted the model's significant clinical utility.

conclusionsThe predictive model developed in this study provides clinicians with a valuable tool for early identification and management of patients at high risk for AKI, thereby potentially enhancing patient outcomes.
