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

backgroundMajor adverse kidney events within 30 days (MAKE30) are associated with poor outcomes in patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI). This study aimed to develop and validate a nomogram-based prediction model for MAKE30 in SA-AKI patients.

methodsClinical and laboratory data were collected from SA-AKI patients admitted to eight tertiary Grade-A hospitals in Shanghai between January 2021 and October 2022, forming the development cohort. External validation was performed using data from SA-AKI patients treated at Ruijin Hospital between January 2017 and December 2019. A predictive nomogram was constructed using LASSO regression followed by multivariate logistic regression. Model performance was assessed using area under the curve (AUC), calibration plots, decision curve analysis (DCA), and clinical impact curves (CIC). The model was subsequently validated in the external validation cohort.

resultsA total of 531 SA-AKI patients were included, with 372 in the development cohort and 159 in the validation cohort. The incidence of MAKE30 was 55.6% in the development cohort and 62.9% in the external validation cohort. Seven independent predictors of MAKE30 were identified: AKI for 7 days, AKI stage, combination antimicrobial therapy, nutritional risk, maximum heart rate (HRmax), cumulative fluid balance D3, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score. The nomogram achieved an AUC of 0.829 (95% CI 0.787-0.870) in the development cohort and 0.776 (95% CI 0.698-0.855) in the validation cohort. Calibration plots, DCA, and CIC demonstrated favorable clinical applicability of the model.

conclusionsA prediction model incorporating seven readily available risk indicators can effectively predict the risk of MAKE30 in SA-AKI patients, facilitating early risk stratification and potential intervention.
