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

backgroundCardiogenic shock (CS) after myocardial infarction remains associated with high mortality. Acute kidney injury (AKI), a common complication, substantially impacts outcomes. We investigated the prognostic relevance of AKI and renal replacement therapy (RRT) in CS.

methodsIn this retrospective study, 369 patients with infarct-related CS admitted to a tertiary center were analyzed. AKI was defined by KDIGO criteria. Clinical, laboratory, and hemodynamic data, including RRT use and in-hospital outcomes, were evaluated. Multivariable logistic regression identified independent predictors of AKI and RRT. Discriminatory power was assessed using AUC.

resultsAKI occurred in 42.8% of patients (n = 143), with 60.1% developing AKI within 48 h and 35.0% classified as stage 3. AKI patients were older (70.5 vs. 67.2 years; p = 0.010), had more pre-existing CKD (100 vs. 83.3%; p = 0.002), and required longer ventilation (168 vs. 65.5 h; p < 0.001). Inflammatory, renal, and perfusion markers were significantly elevated from day 2 onward. RRT was initiated in 8.9% overall and 23.1% of AKI patients, with 60.6% mortality. Predictors of AKI included age (OR 2.40; 95% CI 1.10-5.12) and norepinephrine dose (OR 1.001 per µg/kg; p = 0.042; AUC = 0.71). Predictors of RRT were admission creatinine (OR 2.05 per mg/dL; p = 0.003) and absence of CPR (OR 0.22; p = 0.008; AUC = 0.75). Overall mortality was 57.7%, higher in women (66.4% vs. 53.4%; p = 0.021).

conclusionsAKI is common in infarct-related CS and linked to poor outcomes. Early identification of high-risk patients may enable timely renoprotective strategies.
