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

Background: The serum Uric Acid-to-Albumin Ratio (sUAR) is a novel inflammatory indicator. We aimed to construct and validate a prediction model for acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac valve surgery (CVS) based on the preoperative sUAR. Methods: We retrospectively collected clinical data from adult patients undergoing CVS with cardiopulmonary bypass at the Heart Center of Henan Provincial People's Hospital between December 2020 to December 2021. The primary outcome was postoperative AKI, defined according to the KDIGO creatinine criteria. Patients were categorized as either AKI or non-AKI based on this outcome. Multivariate logistic regression to identify independent risk factors. A nomogram model was developed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve assessed discrimination. The calibration curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow test evaluated calibration. Clinical practicability was assessed through decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curve (CIC). The Bootstrap method was used for internal verification. Results: A total of 440 patients were enrolled, and the incidence of AKI was 33.4%. Multivariate analysis revealed that sUAR (per μmol/g, Conclusion: The prediction model incorporating sUAR provides reliable discrimination and clinical utility for assessing AKI risk following CVS.
