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

Objective: To compare survival to discharge and long-term outcomes in dogs and cats with acute-on-chronic kidney disease (ACKD) compared to acute kidney injury (AKI) treated with renal replacement therapy (RRT) and to identify factors associated with outcome. Design: Retrospective observational design. Setting: Single referral hospital. Animals: 136 client-owned animals (67 dogs and 69 cats) treated with RRT between 2017 and 2024. Measurements and main results: This retrospective observational cohort study reviewed medical records from a referral hospital. Animals were classified as having ACKD ( Conclusion: Although statistically significant differences were not identified, dogs and cats with ACKD had lower survival to discharge and numerically shorter long-term survival than animals with AKI. Nevertheless, 53% of RRT-treated animals with ACKD survived to discharge, demonstrating that short-term survival is achievable in selected ACKD patients.
