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

Objective: The pathogenesis of sepsis is still unclear due to its complexity, especially in children. This study aimed to analyse the immune microenvironment and regulatory networks related to sepsis in children at the molecular level and to identify key immune-related genes to provide a new basis for the early diagnosis of sepsis. Methods: The GSE145227 and GSE26440 datasets were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus. The analyses included differentially expressed genes (DEGs), functional enrichment, immune cell infiltration, the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) interaction network, weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA), protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, key gene screening, correlation of sepsis molecular subtypes/immune infiltration with key gene expression, the diagnostic capabilities of key genes, and networks describing the interaction of key genes with transcription factors and small-molecule compounds. Finally, real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was performed to verify the expression of key genes. Results: A total of 236 immune-related DEGs, most of which were enriched in immune-related biological functions, were found. Further analysis of immune cell infiltration showed that M0 macrophages and neutrophils infiltrated more in the sepsis group, while fewer activated memory CD4 Conclusion: Our results offer new insights into the pathogenesis of sepsis in children and provide new potential diagnostic biomarkers for the disease.
