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

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with a significant burden of mortality worldwide. Each episode of AKI increases the long-term risk of death, especially if there is no recovery or insufficient renal recovery (i.e. restoration of kidney function). This narrative review summarizes relevant studies on the definition and prediction of renal recovery. The following databases were searched for references: PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus. The period lasted from 1990 until 2024. The currently available criteria for renal recovery have been identified and discussed. Regarding restoration of kidney function prediction, seven studies on alternative or novel biomarkers have been reviewed. In the context of kidney replacement therapy and renal recovery, findings from four large, prospective randomized studies have been summarized. A standardized definition of renal recovery is presently not available. Specific biomarkers allow for an estimation of the likelihood of renal recovery under certain conditions. According to current knowledge, no dialysis method has been definitively shown to be advantageous for the recovery process.
