Predictors of acute kidney injury in chronic kidney disease patients treated for cardiovascular disease in the cardiac intensive care unit (MORCOR-TURK subgroup analysis).

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
backgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients in the cardiac intensive care unit (cardiac ICU). In this study, we aimed to identify predictors of AKI in CKD patients treated in the cardiac ICU for cardiovascular diseases.
methodsThe MORCOR-TURK trial was conducted as a multicenter, prospective, cross-sectional, and noninterventional investigation. A total of 3157 patients treated in the cardiac ICU were enrolled from 50 centers over the course of one month. In this subgroup analysis, 615 patients with CKD treated in the cardiac ICU for cardiovascular disease were included in the study. The primary outcome of this study was the development of AKI. During hospitalization, patients who developed AKI were identified.
resultsAKI developed in 288 patients (46%). After multivariable analysis, decompensated heart failure (OR: 3.72, p = 0.005), primary percutaneous coronary intervention (OR: 3.75, p = 0.004), non-primary percutaneous coronary intervention (OR: 2.85, p = 0.033), troponin levels (OR: 1.04, p = 0.031), and need for mechanical ventilation (OR: 3.11, p < 0.001) were identified as independent predictors of AKI development in CKD patients.
conclusionOur efforts to identify AKI predictors in cardiac ICU patients with CKD have yielded directly applicable results in clinical practice. AKI can be prevented by developing personalized strategies to follow up and treat cardiac ICU patients with CKD who have decompensated heart failure, are undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (primary and non-primary), have high troponin levels, and need mechanical ventilation.
