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

backgroundProspective studies on kidney outcomes in critically ill children with acute kidney injury (AKI) are scarce from low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). We conducted a pilot study to evaluate the continuum of transient AKI-persistent AKI-acute kidney disease (AKD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

methodsChildren (1-18 years) admitted to our tertiary Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) and developing AKI with no known pre-existing kidney co-morbidities from January 2021 to June 2022 were included with follow up visits at 1 and 3 months after AKI onset. AKI and CKD were defined as per KDIGO 2012. At risk of CKD was defined by albuminuria, hypertension, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 60-90 ml/kg/1.73 m

resultsOf 390 children, 15% (n = 57) developed AKI. 75% (n = 43) with AKI had underlying primarily non-kidney systemic etiology. Fourteen (25%) died at median 5 days (IQR 4-7) after admission, and three were lost to follow up after discharge. For the 40 AKI survivors with three months data, incidence of transient AKI was 40% (n = 16), persistent AKI 20% (n = 8), AKD 32% (n = 13), and CKD 8% (n = 3). In addition, 18% (n = 7) were at risk of CKD. 38% with AKI for > 48 h vs. 6% with AKI < 48 h developed CKD or were at risk of CKD (p = 0.025). All three AKI survivors who progressed to CKD had an underlying primarily kidney etiology and progressed from AKD to CKD.

conclusionsIn this LMIC study, kidney sequelae were high at 3 months among PICU AKI survivors. This pilot supports the need and feasibility of larger prospective trials in LMIC settings to understand outcomes for all children with AKI.
