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

backgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) is not a rare complication during anti-tuberculosis treatment in some patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). We aimed to develop a risk prediction model for early recognition of patients with PTB at high risk for AKI during anti-TB treatment.

methodsThis retrospective cohort study assessed the clinical baseline, and laboratory test data of 315 inpatients with active PTB who were screened for predictive factors from January 2019 to June 2020. The elements were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. A nomogram was established by the results of the logistic regression analysis. The prediction model discrimination and calibration were evaluated by the concordance index (C-index), ROC curve, and Hosmer-Lemeshow analysis.

resultsA total of 315 patients with PTB were enrolled (67 patients with AKI and 248 patients without AKI). Seven factors, including microalbuminuria, hematuria, cystatin-C (CYS-C), albumin (ALB), creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs), body mass index (BMI), and CA-125 were acquired to develop the predictive model. According to the logistic regression, microalbuminuria (OR = 3.038, 95%CI 1.168-7.904), hematuria (OR = 3.656, 95%CI 1.325-10.083), CYS-C (OR = 4.416, 95%CI 2.296-8.491), and CA-125 (OR = 3.93, 95%CI 1.436-10.756) were risk parameter, while ALB (OR = 0.741, 95%CI 0.650-0.844) was protective parameter. The nomogram demonstrated good prediction in estimating AKI (C-index= 0.967, AUC = 0.967, 95%CI (0.941-0.984), sensitivity = 91.04%, specificity = 93.95%, Hosmer-Lemeshow analysis SD = 0.00054, and quantile of absolute error = 0.049).

conclusionsMicroalbuminuria, hematuria, ALB reduction, elevated CYS-C, and CA-125 are predictive factors for the development of AKI in patients with PTB during anti-TB treatments. The predictive nomogram based on five predictive factors is achieved good risk prediction for AKI during anti-TB treatments.
