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

purposeEvaluation of a kidney-adjusted enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS

methodsThe kERAS protocol is a multidimensional protocol focusing on optimized perioperative fluid and nutrition management as well as strict intraoperative and postoperative blood pressure limits. It was applied in a prospective cohort (n = 147) of patients undergoing open or robotic PN. Patients were analyzed for the development of acute postoperative renal failure (AKI), achievement of TRIFECTA criteria, upstaging or new onset of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and length of hospital stay (LOS) and compared to a retrospective cohort (n = 162) without application of the protocol.

resultsCox regression analyses could not confirm a protective effect of kERAS on the development of AKI post-surgery. A positive effect was observed on TRIFECTA achievement (OR 2.2, 95% CI 1.0-4.5, p = 0.0374). Patients treated with the kERAS protocol showed less long-term CKD upstaging compared to those treated with the standard protocol (p = 0.0033). There was no significant effect on LOS and new onset of CKD.

conclusionThe implementation of a kERAS protocol can have a positive influence on long-term renal function in patients undergoing PN. It can be used safely without promoting AKI. Furthermore, it can be realized with a manageable amount of additional effort.
