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

backgroundNephron-sparing surgery (NSS) represents the preferred technique to treat localized renal lesions, not being exempted from the risk of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) to happen, though. Patients experiencing postoperative AKI, either clinical or subclinical, are more susceptible to develop chronic kidney disease.

methodsPatients scheduled for NSS in localized renal cell carcinoma were recruited. Patients were grouped according to postoperative AKI development and postoperative NephroCheck value: group 1 (normal), no AKI and no increased biomarker; group 2 (subclinical AKI), no AKI but increased NephroCheck (> 0.3 at 4 h postoperatively); group 3, AKI and no increased NephroCheck; group 4 (clinical AKI), AKI and increased NephroCheck. Samples were collected pre- and post-operatively; renal function was re-assessed up to 24 months.

resultsAmong 131 patients included, 42% developed clinical AKI. Based on NephroCheck

conclusionsIn patients undergoing NSS, the most reliable predictor of long-term eGFR decline is represented by the occurrence of postoperative clinical AKI. In this setting, NephroCheck
