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

The occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients is often associated with increased morbidity and mortality rates. Despite extensive research, a consensus is yet to be arrived, especially regarding the optimal timing and indications for initiation of kidney replacement therapy (KRT) for critically ill patients. There is no clear guidance available on the timing of weaning from KRT. More recently, various biomarkers have produced promising prognostic prediction in such patients, regarding the need for KRT and its termination. Most of these biomarkers are indicative of kidney damage and stress, rather than recovery. However, large-scale validation studies are required to guide the cutoff values of these biomarkers among different patient cohorts so as to identify the optimum timing for KRT. This article reviews the kidney biomarkers in detail and summarizes the individual roles of biomarkers in the decision-making process for initiation and termination of the KRT among critically ill AKI patients and the supportive literature.
