Fluid deresuscitation in critically ill children: comparing perspectives of intensivists and nephrologists.

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
Introduction: Fluid accumulation, presently defined as a pathologic state of overhydration/volume overload associated with clinical impact, is common and associated with worse outcomes. At times, deresuscitation, the active removal of fluid via diuretics or ultrafiltration, is necessary. There is no consensus regarding deresuscitation in children admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit. Little is known regarding perceptions and practices among pediatric intensivists and nephrologists regarding fluid provision and deresuscitation. Methods: Cross-sectional electronic survey of pediatric nephrologists and intensivists from academic societies in the United States designed to better understand fluid management between disciplines. A clinical vignette was used to characterize the perceptions of optimal timing and method of deresuscitation initiation at four timepoints that correspond to different stages of shock. Results: In total, 179 respondents (140 intensivists, 39 nephrologists) completed the survey. Most 75.4% (135/179) providers believe discussing fluid balance and initiating fluid deresuscitation in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) patients is "very important". The first clinical vignette time point (corresponding to resuscitation phase of early shock) had the most dissimilarity between intensivists and nephrologists ( Discussion: Most physicians believe that discussing fluid balance and deresuscitation is important. Nevertheless, when to initiate deresuscitation and how to accomplish it differed between nephrologist and intensivists. Widely understood and operationalizable definitions, further research, and eventually evidence-based guidelines are needed to help guide care.
