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

Sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) significantly increases mortality and healthcare burdens. Identifying key mortality risk factors is crucial for improving patient outcomes. This study aims to identify the primary factors affecting mortality in SA-AKI patients using the MIMIC-III database. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 4868 SA-AKI patients from the MIMIC-III database. Clinical data from the first 24 h of ICU admission were analyzed using logistic regression to identify mortality predictors. Key mortality predictors included advanced age (OR = 1.015, 95% CI: 1.006-1.024), severe AKI stages (OR = 1.470, 95% CI: 1.285-1.676), low serum albumin (OR = 0.606, 95% CI: 0.506-0.722), delayed antibiotics (OR = 1.001, 95% CI: 1.000-1.002), high AST (OR = 1.035, 95% CI: 1.027-1.083), and bilirubin (OR = 1.055, 95% CI: 1.037-1.083). The area under the curve (AUC) of the combined predictors for mortality risk was 0.796, indicating high predictive accuracy. Conclusions: Early intervention and monitoring of identified risk factors such as age, AKI stage, albumin levels, and antibiotic timeliness can enhance survival rates in SA-AKI patients.
