Acute kidney injury developed in the intensive care unit: a population-based prospective cohort study in the Brazilian Amazon.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The Brazilian Amazon is a vast area with limited health care resources. To assess the epidemiology of critically ill acute kidney injury (AKI) patients in this area, a prospective cohort study of 1029 adult patients of the three intensive care units (ICUs) of Rio Branco city, the capital of Acre state, were evaluated from February 2014 to February 2016. The incidence of AKI was 53.3%. Risk factors for AKI included higher age, nonsurgical patients, admission to the ICU from the ward, higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scores at ICU admission, and positive fluid balance > 1500 ml/24 hours in the days before AKI development in the ICU, with aOR of 1.3 (95% CI 1.03-1.23), 1.47 (95% CI 1.07-2.03), 1.96 (95% CI 1.40-2.74), 1.05 (95% CI 1.03-1.08) for each unit increase, and 1.62 (95% CI 1.16-2.26), respectively. AKI was associated with higher ICU mortality (aOR 2.03, 95% CI 1.29-3.18). AKI mortality was independently associated with higher age, nonsurgical patients, sepsis at ICU admission, presence of shock or use of vasoactive drugs, mechanical ventilation and mean positive fluid balance in the ICU > 1500 ml/24 hours, both during ICU follow-up, with aOR 1.27 (95% CI 1.14-1.43) for each 10-year increase, 1.64 (95% CI 1.07-2.52), 2.35 (95% CI 1.14-4.83), 1.88 (95% CI 1.03-3.44), 6.73 (95% CI 4.08-11.09), 2.31 (95% CI 1.52-3.53), respectively. Adjusted hazard ratios for AKI mortality 30 and 31-180 days after ICU discharge were 3.13 (95% CI 1.84-5.31) and 1.69 (95% CI 0.99-2.90), respectively. AKI incidence was strikingly high among critically ill patients in the Brazilian Amazon. The AKI etiology, risk factors and outcomes were similar to those described in high-income countries, but mortality rates were higher.
