In one paragraph

Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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 syndrome characterized by simultaneous activation of pro- and anti-inflammatory processes. After an inflammatory phase, patients present signs of immunosuppression and possibly persistent inflammation. Hematopoietic growth factors (HGFs) are glycoproteins that cause immune cells to mature and/or proliferate. HGFs also have a profound effect on cell functions and behavior. HGFs play crucial role in sepsis pathophysiology and were tested in several clinical trials without success to date. This review summarizes the role played by HGFs during sepsis and their potential therapeutic role in the Management of sepsis-related immune disturbances.
