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

objectiveTo define the significance of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1) in the septic cascade by comparing its kinetics to those of other proinflammatory mediators and of interleukin (IL) 10.

designProspective study in a tertiary unit. PATIENTS: Blood was sampled from 90 patients with septic syndrome due to ventilator-associated pneumonia for 7 days after the appearance of symptoms. Concentrations of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and sTREM-1 were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

resultsSerum levels of TNFalpha, IL-6, IL-10, and sTREM-1 were higher in nonsurvivors than in survivors; similar differences were not found for IL-8. Positive correlations were found between the ratios IL-10/TNFalpha and sTREM-1/TNFalpha, between IL-10/IL-6 and sTREM-1/IL-6, and between IL-10/IL-8 and sTREM-1/IL-8. Median values of IL-10/TNFalpha upon presentation of sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock were 3.21, 2.16, and 2.86, respectively (NS). Respective values for sTREM-1/TNFalpha were 21.28, 7.33, and 27.78 (p=0.047 between sepsis and severe sepsis, p=0.003 between severe sepsis and septic shock).

conclusionssTREM-1 follows the kinetics of IL-10 and should therefore be considered an anti-inflammatory mediator in sepsis. Decreased ratios of sTREM-1/TNFalpha might determine transition from sepsis to severe sepsis and from severe sepsis to septic shock.
