Acute kidney injury and renal recovery following Fontan surgery.
Article in JTCVS open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Objectives: Acute kidney injury has been described after Fontan surgery, but the duration and outcomes are unknown. We sought to describe the incidence of and risk factors for acute kidney injury and the phenotype of renal recovery, and evaluate the impact of renal recovery phenotype on outcomes. Methods: All children who underwent a Fontan operation at a single center between 2009 and 2022 were included. Data collected included Fontan characteristics, vasopressor use, all measures of creatinine, and postoperative outcomes. Logistic regression models were used to assess predictors of acute kidney injury and the association between acute kidney injury and outcomes. Results: We enrolled 141 children (45% female). Acute kidney injury occurred in 100 patients (71%). Acute kidney injury duration was transient (<48 hours) in 77 patients (55%), persistent (2-7 days) in 15 patients (11%), more than 7 days in 4 patients (3%), and unknown in 4 patients (3%). Risk factors for acute kidney injury included higher preoperative indexed pulmonary vascular resistance (odds ratio, 3.90; Conclusions: Acute kidney injury after the Fontan operation is common. The occurrence and duration of acute kidney injury have significant implications for postoperative outcomes.
