Review in Trends in molecular medicine, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 78 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Sepsis is a complex inflammatory response to infection. Microarray-based gene expression studies of sepsis have illuminated the complex pathogen recognition and inflammatory signaling pathways that characterize sepsis. More recently, gene expression profiling has been used to identify diagnostic and prognostic gene signatures, as well as novel therapeutic targets. Studies in pediatric cohorts suggest that transcriptionally distinct subclasses might account for some of the heterogeneity seen in sepsis. Time series analyses have pointed to rapid and dynamic shifts in transcription patterns associated with various phases of sepsis. These findings highlight current challenges in sepsis knowledge translation, including the need to adapt complex and time-consuming whole-genome methods for use in the intensive care unit environment, where rapid diagnosis and treatment are essential.
