Acute Kidney injury of glomerular origin in Asian population: Causes and outcomes - Meta-Analysis.
Review in Pakistan journal of medical sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: To collect all studies on acute kidney injury of glomerular origin, published from Asia, even with their limitations, and look for causes and outcome in this particular population. Method: As of June 2024, a comprehensive literature search was conducted in the databases of PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, Google Scholar and PubMed Central, for full-text articles in English language, describing original articles on acute kidney injury of glomerular origin published from Asia. There was no time limit set for searching year of publication. Combinations of key words used were 'acute kidney injury' or 'acute renal failure' or 'acute kidney injury of glomerular origin' or 'glomerular diseases causing acute kidney injury' along with using 'Asia'. Data was extracted and analyzed. Results: Of the 21 studies subjected to detailed analysis, 10(47.61%) had been published from China, 4 (19 %) from India, 2(9.52%) from Hong Kong and 1 (4.76 %) each from Iran, Korea, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Sri Lanka. Overall, there were 4,077 patients with acute kidney injury of glomerular origin. There were 7(33 %) studies addressing isolated lupus nephritis, two had isolated AAV, 1 Anti-GBM disease, two acute GN, two Crescentic GN, two PIGN, while 5 (24%) studies included different varieties including lupus and other categories in their population. Majority of studies were retrospective cohorts except one prospective. Pattern of defining and classifying acute kidney injury varied in the studies. Need for renal replacement varied widely from 7-80 %. Complete recovery varied from 9 to 96 % and mortality 3-38 % in the analyzed studies. Conclusions: The number of acute kidney injury patients was considerable. Despite variations in definitions, study designs and outcomes, the meta-analysis provides useful information about the pattern of the major causes of glomerular diseases causing acute kidney injury in Asia.
