Endothelial glycocalyx-the battleground for complications of sepsis and kidney injury.

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
After briefly discussing endothelial glycocalyx and its role in vascular physiology and renal disease, this overview focuses on its degradation very early in the course of microbial sepsis. We describe our recently proposed mechanism for glycocalyx degradation induced by exocytosis of lysosome-related organelles and release of their cargo. Notably, an intermediate in nitric oxide synthesis, NG-hydroxy-l-arginine, shows efficacy in curtailing exocytosis of these organelles and improvement in animal survival. These data not only depict a novel mechanism responsible for very early glycocalyx degradation, but may also outline a potential preventive therapy. The second issue discussed in this article is related to the therapeutic acceleration of restoration of already degraded endothelial glycocalyx. Here, using as an example our recent findings obtained with sulodexide, we illustrate the importance of the expedited repair of degraded endothelial glycocalyx for the survival of animals with severe sepsis. These two focal points of the review on glycocalyx may not only have broader disease applicability, but they may also provide additional evidence to buttress the idea of the importance of endothelial glycocalyx and its maintenance and repair in the prevention and treatment of an array of renal and nonrenal diseases.
