Ulinastatin as an Adjuvant Therapy to Restricting Volumes of Resuscitation Fluid Strategy for Patients with Septic Shock after Initial Management.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Septic shock is the most serious complication of sepsis, leading to unacceptably high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Fluid resuscitation using crystalloids has become the mainstay of early and aggressive treatment of severe sepsis and septic shock, while increased daily fluid balances from day 2 until day 7 have been related with increased mortality. Recently, pharmacological management has been recommended to combine with appropriate fluid resuscitation for the treatment of septic shock. In this study, we compared the clinical efficacy of restricting volumes of resuscitation fluid strategy with or without intravenous infusion of ulinastatin (UTI) in treating patients with septic shock and additionally examined the patient's changes of the extravascular lung water index (EVLWI), pulmonary vascular permeability index (PVPI), systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI), cardiac function, lactic acid (LA) level, coagulation function, and renal function. The study included 182 patients with septic shock, among which 89 patients had undergone restricting volumes of resuscitation fluid strategy with intravenous infusion of UTI and 93 patients had undergone restricting volumes of resuscitation fluid strategy alone. It was found that patients with septic shock after restricting volumes of resuscitation fluid strategy with intravenous infusion of UTI showed an increased SVRI concomitant with declined PVPI and EVLWI, increased mean artery pressure (MAP), cardiac output (CO), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), stroke volume (SV), and heart rate (HR), declined levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and C-reactive protein (CRP), reduced LA level along with shortened prothrombin time (PT) and partially activated thrombin time (PATT), and decreased levels of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr), and uric acid (UA) when comparable to those after restricting volumes of resuscitation fluid strategy alone (
