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

backgroundTo investigate the effects of intraoperative blood pressure (BP) variability on development of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.

methodsIn this retrospective observational study, a total 8504 adult (≥ 20 years) cases who underwent non-cardiac surgery with general anesthesia performed at Fukuoka University Hospital from 2017 to 2019 were included in the present analysis. Standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), average real variability (ARV) and minimum value of intraoperative systolic BP based on oscillometric measurement were used as indices of BP variability. Postoperative AKI was defined as an increase serum creatinine level by more than 0.3 mg/dL or 1.5 times from preoperation within 48 h after surgery.

resultsA total of 184 (2.16%) cases developed AKI postoperatively. Incidence of AKI increased with elevation of SD, CV and ARV of intraoperative systolic BP. Although the association of SD and CV became non-significant after adjustment for confounding factors including intraoperative hypotension (minimum systolic BP < 80 mm Hg) (both P > 0.05 for trend). However, ARV of intraoperative systolic BP were remained significantly associated with postoperative AKI after adjustment for confounding factors including intraoperative hypotension (P > 0.007 for trend). In contrast, lower minimum systolic BP was associated with increased cumulative incidence of postoperative AKI even after adjustment for other confounding factors (P < 0.001 for trend).

conclusionsIn a large-scale observational study of Japanese who underwent non-cardiac surgery, intraoperative BP variability, which was defined by ARV and minimum value of systolic BP, was associated with higher risks of postoperative AKI.

trial registrationThis study was approved by the Fukuoka University Medical Ethics Committee (No. H19-12-006).
