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
backgroundSepsis still represents a major health issue, with persistent high morbidity and mortality rates. Cardiovascular dysfunction occurs frequently during sepsis. Adrenomedullin has been identified as a key mediator in vascular tone regulation. A non-neutralizing anti-adrenomedullin antibody, Adrecizumab, may improve haemodynamic dysfunction during caecal ligation and puncture-induced septic shock in a murine model. Our objective was to determine the role of Adrecizumab on haemodynamics in a rat model of sepsis.
methodsFor the induction of sepsis, caecal ligation and puncture were performed in Wistar male rats. Single blinded administration of Adrecizumab (2 mg/kg) or placebo was injected i.v. 24 h after the surgery, and norepinephrine was infused as the standard of care. There were > 7 animals per group. Invasive blood pressure and cardiac function (by echocardiography) were assessed until 3 h after Adrecizumab injection.
resultsA single therapeutic injection of Adrecizumab in septic rats induced rapid haemodynamic benefits with an increase in systolic blood pressure in septic-Adrecizumab rats versus untreated-septic rats (p = 0.049). The shortening fraction did not differ between the untreated-septic and septic-Adrecizumab groups. However, cardiac output increased during the 3 h after a single dose of Adrecizumab compared to untreated septic rats (p = 0.006). A single dose of Adrecizumab resulted in similar haemodynamics to the continuous administration of norepinephrine. Three hours after a single injection of Adrecizumab, there was no change in the inflammatory phenotype (TNFα, IL-10) in the hearts of the septic rats. By contrast, 3 h after a single Adrecizumab injection, free-radical production decreased in the hearts of septic-Adrecizumab vs untreated septic rats (p < 0.05).
conclusionsIn a rat model of sepsis, a single therapeutic injection of Adrecizumab rapidly restored haemodynamic parameters and blunted myocardial oxidative stress. Currently, a proof-of-concept and dose-finding phase II trial (Adrenoss-2) is ongoing in patients with septic shock and elevated concentrations of circulating bio-adrenomedullin.
