Spectrum and Outcome of Acute Kidney Injury in Nonsurgical Cardiac Intensive Care Unit Patients: A Prospective Observational Study.
Article in Indian journal of critical care medicine : peer-reviewed, official publication of Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background and aims: This study has been conducted to investigate the spectrum, outcome and prognostic factors of acute kidney injury (AKI) in nonsurgical cardiac intensive care unit (CICU). Patients and methods: Hospital-based single center prospective observational study with duration of 9 months (January/2023 to September/2023). Data recorded at baseline, 72 hours, day 7, at discharge and at 1 and 3 months after discharge. Results: 194 AKI patients (incidence 15.45%), had mean hospital stay 9 ± 4 days, mean age 59.71 years, 84.0% male, 52.1% hypertensive and 47.9% diabetes mellitus. 73% had chest pain, 2.1% anuria, 40.20% shock and 8.2% required inotrope support. AKI was mainly community-acquired, nonoliguric, stage 2; due to type 1 cardiorenal syndrome secondary to acute myocardial infarction and heart failure. 92.3% had LV systolic dysfunction, 52.1% received diuretics and 16% had thrombolysis. 24 subjects received hemodialysis (HD) with mortality 5.6%. Major outcome was nonrecovery at discharge (50.5%), complete remission at 3 months (63.4%) and progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD) (27.8%,). Acute kidney injury staging and outcome was unaffected by discharge cardiac diagnosis. Severe AKI and HD requirement had significantly affected progression to CKD and mortality. Total leukocyte count and serum creatinine had significant connection with mortality. Moderate to severe AKI showed significant risk of subsequent cardiovascular events ( Conclusion: Acute kidney injury in cardiac ICU is mostly community-acquired and due to cardiorenal syndrome type 1. Majority achieved complete remission on follow-up. Moderate to severe AKI, often multifactorial, is significantly associated with progression to CKD, patient mortality and subsequent cardiovascular events.
