Figure 2 Forest Plot of RR of CI-AKI

Forest plot of risk ratios (RR) of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) of pooled trials. Total number of patients in iodixanol group = 1,291. Total number of patients in the low-osmolar contrast media (LOCM) group = 1,289. ACTIVE = Abdominal Computed Tomography: IOMERON 400 versus VISIPAQUE 320 Enhancement Study; CARE = Cardiac Angiography in Renally Impaired Patients Study; CI = confidence interval; ICON = Ionic Versus Nonionic Contrast to Obviate Worsening Nephropathy After Angioplasty in Chronic Renal Failure Patients; IMPACT = renally IMpaired PAtients undergoing Computed Tomography; IX = iodixanol; NEPHRIC = Nephrotoxicity in High-Risk Patients Study of Iso-Osmolar and Low-Osmolar Non-Ionic Contrast Media Study; PREDICT = Patients with Renal Impairment and Diabetes undergoing Computed Tomography; RECOVER = Renal Toxicity Evaluation and Comparison Between Visipaque and Hexabrix in Patients With Renal Insufficiency Undergoing Coronary Angiography; VALOR = Visipaque Angiography/Interventions With Laboratory Outcomes in Renal Insufficiency Study.

Figure 3 Forest Plot of RR of CI-AKI of Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography

Forest plot of risk ratios (RR) of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in studies of patients undergoing coronary angiography. Total number of patients in iodixanol group = 873. Total number of patients in the low-osmolar contrast media (LOCM) group = 875. Abbreviations as in Figures 1 and 2.
