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

backgroundViral and bacterial infections may be complicated by rhabdomyolysis, which has a spectrum of clinical presentations ranging from asymptomatic laboratory abnormalities to life-threatening conditions such as renal failure. Direct viral injury as well as inflammatory responses may cause rhabdomyolysis in the course of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). When presented with acute kidney injury (AKI), rhabdomyolysis may be related to higher morbidity and mortality.

aimTo compare rhabdomyolysis-related AKI with other AKIs during COVID-19.

methodsA total of 115 patients with COVID-19 who had AKI were evaluated retrospectively. Fifteen patients had a definite diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis (

resultsFor patients with rhabdomyolysis, creatinine reached 2.47 ± 1.17 mg/dL during follow-up in hospital. Of these patients, 13.3% had AKI upon hospital admission, and 86.4% developed AKI during hospital follow-up. Their peak C-reactive protein reached as high as 253.2 ± 80.6 mg/L and was higher than in patients with AKI due to other reasons (

conclusionRhabdomyolysis was present in 13.0% of the patients who had AKI during COVID-19 infection. Rhabdomyolysis-related AKI is more proinflammatory and has a more mortal clinical course.
