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

objectiveTo assess current practices in the diagnosis, monitoring, and follow-up of neonatal AKI across Canadian tertiary neonatal units. STUDY

designA seven-item electronic survey was distributed to members of the Canadian Neonatal Network between December 2023 and January 2024.

resultsOf the 32 units contacted, 26 (81.3%) responded. On-site nephrology consultation was available at 15/26 sites (57.7%). Only 5 sites (19.2%) actively tracked AKI incidence in infants born < 33 weeks' gestation. Wide variation was observed in AKI definitions, monitoring practices, and follow-up protocols. Serum creatinine was measured prior to initiating non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs at 15 sites (57.7%), and 11 sites (42.3%) monitored creatinine when urine output fell below 0.5 mL/kg/hour.

conclusionsSubstantial variability exists in the identification and monitoring of neonatal AKI among Canadian NICUs. Standardized diagnostic criteria and follow-up strategies are needed to improve early detection and optimize long-term renal outcomes.
