26 Many other trials, in our opinion, failed either because,,,, Wrong premises Premises that were too vague and generic. If too generic, the heterogeneity of the population is an unavoidable consequence.

27 vs. The trialists spent a lot of effort in improving their internal validity, by increasing the number of rules and caveats to avoid possible biases in the conduct of the trials. This obviously makes the results valid only for the restricted patient population enrolled in the study and the generalization of the results (the external validity) is problematic.

32 ?

33 Premise 1, 2 May be by chance the first RCT picked a population with baseline SvO2 of 48 %. The baseline SvO2 in the remaining trials was already higher than 70 %, suggesting that oxygen imbalance was not the primary problem in the majority of the patients.

37 Truly negative trials are valuable because they prevent the use of interventions that are either costly but nonbeneficial or even harmful (e.g.,intensive insulin therapy and hydroxyethyl starch). Understanding an evidence base requires the ability to distinguish among these reasons so as to differentiate trials that are truly negative from those that may be falsely negative.

44 General ICU sepsis ALI

45 Crit Care Med 2010; 38[Suppl.]:S534 S538 High Exclusion Rates Lead to Limited Clinical Applicability With such tight exclusion criteria limiting enrollment,,,, How can the patient population that is actually studied really be representative of the entire population initially considered eligible? How can the results be applicable to the general ICU population?

46 TRICC study Just 13% of 6451 patients screened were randomized.

86 The main statistical analysis for efficacy Comparison between groups of 28-day mortality Measure: Death until 28 days after the initiation of mechanical ventilation. Patients who were alive at 28 days were censored at 28 days. Aim: Comparison of the occurrence of the events between groups Test: Log-rank test, Cox proportional hazard model Significance: Two-sided p values of less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Confidence interval: 95%confidence interval (CI) of the hazard ratio were calculated. Expression: The number of the occurrence of the events, Cumulative incidence, and hazard ratio.

87 Negative!

88 The secondary statistical analysis for efficacy 28-day mortality Measure: Death during 28 days Aim: Comparison of the occurrence of the events between groups Test: Chi-square test or Fisher exact test Significance: Two-sided p values of less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Confidence interval: NA. Expression: The number of the occurrence of the events, the ratio of the occurrence of the events.

91 Discussion The study may have identified a clinically important benefit of dexmedetomidine an 8% reduction in 28-day mortality that did not demonstrate statistical significance. Physicians may consider an 8% difference in 28-day mortality to be clinically significant but this study was underpowered to detect this difference.

92 Funding Funding/Support: This study was supported in part by a noncontractual research grant to Wakayama Medical University provided by Hospira Japan. Role of the Funder/Sponsor: Hospira Japan participated in part of the design of this study; however, it had no role in the conduct of the study; collection, management, analysis, and interpretation of the data; preparation or approval of the manuscript; or decision to submit the manuscript for publication.

93 No earlier multicenter RCTs have investigated the effects of ANP infusion in patients with cardiac surgery associated AKI. We therefore decided to evaluate the effects of ANP on renal function and medical costs in patients with cardiac surgery associated AKI.

94 ICU ICU ICU 11 May March

95 Double-blind ANP 0.02 μg /kg/min (2 ml/h) (5% glucose, 2 ml/h Preoperative level

96 Study coordinators INDICE INDICE randomization system

97 Inclusion Age of 20 years Recent elective cardiac surgery, namely, CABG, valve surgery, thoracic aortic aneurysm surgery, or a combination thereof. AKI within 48 hours after cardiac surgery ANP Exclusion Severe hypotension or cardiogenic shock Right ventricular infarction Dehydration End-stage renal disease Administration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, angiotensin-converting enzyme(ace) inhibitor, or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) within 24 hours before the operation Administration of contrast agent within 3 days before the operation Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

98 The primary end point Change in renal function over the 90-day follow-up measured by serum levels of creatinine and cystatin C, and creatinine clearance or egfr.

99 Sample size and power calculation a difference in means of α 5% β 20% 87 10% 97

100

101 Reasons why,,,, approval of ethics committees difficulty in obtaining consent from patients decisions by several hospitals to prioritize patients with ventricular assist devices. many surgeons in trial sites insisted on using ANP in patients with high preoperative creatinine levels these patients were excluded before assessment for eligibility and were administered ANP during surgery.
