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 often causes sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (S-AKI) and is a leading cause of death in critically ill cancer patients. This study aims to assess the prognostic value of loop diuretic use in cancer patients with S-AKI. A retrospective cohort of 117 cancer patients with S-AKI admitted to the ICU between 2009 and 2023 was analyzed. Among them, 90 patients treated with loop diuretics were categorized into four groups according to AKI stage and furosemide dose: early-stage with low-dose, early-stage with high-dose, late-stage with low-dose, and late-stage with high-dose. Additionally, 27 early-stage patients who did not receive diuretics were included as a comparator group. The primary outcome was 28-day mortality. Patients receiving low-dose furosemide at early-stage AKI had significantly lower 28-day mortality (22.7%,
