Isoproterenol infusion and microcirculation in septic shock.
Article in Heart, lung and vessels, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
introductionOur study primarily aimed at investigating the effect of isoproterenol infusion on tissue oxygen saturation in patients with septic shock. The secondary aim was to assess the relation between cardiac index, central venous oxygen saturation and tissue oxygen saturation.
methodsThis retrospective study was conducted from December 2010 to March 2012. We included 14 consecutive patients with septic shock treated with isoproterenol. All patients were monitored by cardiac index and tissue oxygen saturation. From medical charts, routine hemodynamic data were extracted one hour before and six hours after the onset of isoproterenol infusion.
resultsFrom baseline to H6, tissue oxygen saturation levels rise from 78 [72-82]% to 85 [78-88]% (p = 0.03). Isoproterenol infusion was associated with an increase of central venous oxygen saturation (from 67 [65-74]% to 84 [77-86]%, p = 0.02) and cardiac index (from 2.9 [2.7-3.1] L/min/m² to 3.9 [3.0-4.4] L/min/m², p = 0.006). Tissue oxygen saturation was correlated neither to cardiac index (p = 0.14, R(2) = 0.08) nor to central venous oxygen saturation (p = 0.19, R(2) = 0.10).
conclusionsUse of isoproterenol was associated with an increase of tissue oxygen saturation. This increase was not correlated to cardiac index, suggesting a decoupling between macrocirculation and microcirculation.
