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

In the intensive care unit (ICU), acute kidney injury (AKI) is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality. Hospital-acquired acute kidney injury (HAAKI) is AKI developing after 48 h. We aimed to study the development of AKI and its associated risk factors. We conducted a longitudinal observational study. Inclusion criteria were patients > 18 years of age admitted to ICU. The primary outcome was the development of AKI as defined by Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. A total of 273 patients were included in the study. Out of 273, 44(16.11%) patients developed AKI. The mean age was 45.80(17.39) years, and 60.81% were males. The median acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE II) and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores were 12(8-18) and 5(3-7), respectively. Diabetes mellitus (23.44%) and hypertension (23.81%) were predominant comorbidities. The risk factors associated with AKI were serum chloride level, colistin, invasive ventilation, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), and fluid balance. The hospital mortality was significantly higher in patients with AKI (43.18%) as compared with no AKI (14.41%). Among the secondary outcomes, 7 (15.90%) patients required renal replacement therapy (RRT) during hospitalisation. The length of ICU stay was higher in patients with AKI 8(5-13) compared to no AKI 5(3-8). A total of 16.11% developed HAAKI, and mortality was 43.18%. Post 6 months follow-up of AKI patients, mortality was 23%. Among survivors none of the patients were on RRT.Patients admitted with normal kidney function can develop AKI. Hence, careful monitoring of ICU patients is necessary.
