Diagnostic Value of Inflammatory Markers and Cytokines in Neonatal Sepsis.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. 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 It has been retracted, and should not be counted.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 2 papers.
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
Objective: To explore the diagnosis value of inflammatory markers and cytokines in neonatal sepsis. Methods: In this retrospective analysis, 90 cases of neonatal sepsis admitted to our hospital from April 2019 to April 2021 were included in the observation group, and 70 healthy neonates who received routine physical examinations in our hospital during the same period were recruited as the control group. Comparison and analysis of inflammatory markers and cytokines levels between the two groups were performed on days 1, 3, and 7 after the onset. Flow cytometry was used to measure the white blood cells (WBCs) and percentage of neutrophils (N%), immunoturbidimetry was used to determine C-reactive protein (CRP), immunochromatographic analysis was used to determine procalcitonin (PCT) in plasma, and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine interleukin-27 (IL-27), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), and tumor necrosis factor- Results: Compared with healthy controls, neonatal sepsis resulted in significantly higher levels of WBC, N%, PCT, and CRP on days 1, 3, and 7 after onset. The levels of WBC, N%, and PCT were continuously decreased from day 1 to day 7, while the levels of CRP were increased on day 1 and day 3 but declined on day 7 ( Conclusion: Neonatal sepsis was associated with fluctuating levels of WBC, N%, PCT, CRP, IL-27, IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-
