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

backgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication after liver transplantation (LT). How to realize the early diagnosis of AKI, perform active intervention, and reduce the mortality of post-LT patients is an urgent problem to be solved.

aimTo investigate the accuracy of hepatorenal index (HRI) and renal resistive index (RRI) in monitoring of early AKI after LT.

methodsThis observational study included adult deceased-donor LT recipients at our center between February 2022 and February 2023 with no preoperative renal dysfunction. The HRI and RRI were recorded once

resultsOf 121 patients were included in the study (mean age: 50.18 ± 8.88years; female: 17.36%). AKI developed in 53 patients (43.80%). The AKI and non-AKI groups were similar in terms of their baseline characteristics. An HRI of ≤ 1.12 on POD 1 detected AKI with a sensitivity of 62.30% and a specificity of 87.80% [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) = 0.801,

conclusionThe HRI and RRI are non-invasive bedside indices that can identify the occurrence and recovery of early AKI after LT.
