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

objectivesAcute kidney injury (AKI) is a common but often underrecognized complication in ischemic stroke patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy, particularly among those with pre-existing renal impairment. This study evaluated the incidence, risk factors, and clinical impact of AKI in this high-risk population.

methodsThis retrospective, two-center study involved 310 patients who underwent MT for ischemic stroke and presented with impaired renal function at baseline (eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m

resultsAcute kidney injury occurred in 91 patients, including 49 with PC-AKI and 42 with L-AKI. Patients who developed AKI were more likely to have pre-existing chronic kidney disease, prior NSAIDs use, and higher serum glucose and potassium levels at admission. Additionally, AKI was associated with longer hospitalization, increased in-hospital and 3-month mortality, and less favorable clinical outcomes overall. The independent predictors of AKI included NIHSS > 15 (OR: 3.441), WBC count (OR: 1.128), female sex (OR: 0.311), and the comorbidity burden (OR: 2.414).

interpretationAcute kidney injury represents a frequent and clinically relevant complication following MT in patients with pre-existing renal impairment. Early recognition and the implementation of preventive strategies are essential, particularly in patients with established risk factors for AKI.
