Long-Term Cognitive Outcomes After Sepsis: a Translational Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Molecular neurobiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 73 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 systemic inflammatory response syndrome with a life-threatening organ dysfunction that is caused by an unbalanced host immune response in an attempt to eliminate invasive microorganisms. We posed questions, "Does sepsis survivor patients have increased risk of neuropsychiatric manifestations?" and "What is the mechanism by which sepsis induces long-term neurological sequelae, particularly substantial cognitive function decline in survivor patients and in pre-clinical sepsis models?" The studies were identified by searching PubMed/MEDLINE (National Library of Medicine), PsycINFO, EMBASE (Ovid), LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature), IBECS (Bibliographical Index in Spanish in Health Sciences), and Web of Science databases for peer-reviewed journals that were published until January 2018. A total of 3555 papers were included in the primary screening. After that, 130 articles were selected for the study. A number of pre-clinical studies have shown an auto amplification of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 in the first few hours after sepsis induction, also increased blood-brain barrier permeability, elevated levels of matrix metalloproteinases, increased levels of damage-associated molecular patterns were demonstrated. In addition, the rodents presented long-term cognitive impairment in different behavioral tasks that were prevented by blocking the mechanism of action of these inflammatory mediators. Clinical studies have showed that sepsis survivors presented increased bodily symptoms such as fatigue, pain, visual disturbances, gastrointestinal problems, and neuropsychiatric problems compared to before sepsis. Sepsis leaves the survivors with an aftermath of physiological, neuropsychiatric, and functional impairment. Systematic review registration: CRD42017071755.
