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

Background: Electrolyte balance is an important factor to sustain the homeostasis of human body environment and in sepsis pathogenesis. Many current cohort-based studies have already revealed that electrolyte disorder may intensify sepsis and induce stroke. However, the corresponding randomized controlled trials did not show that electrolyte disorder in sepsis has a harmful effect on stroke. Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the association of genetically sepsis-derived electrolyte disorder with stroke risk using meta-analysis and Mendelian randomization. Results: In four studies (182,980 patients), electrolyte disorders were compared with stroke incidence in patients with sepsis. The pooled odds ratio (OR) of stroke is 1.79 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.23-3.06; Conclusion: Our study revealed the association between electrolyte disorder and stroke in sepsis patients, and the correlation between genetic susceptibility to sepsis and increased risk of cardioembolic stroke, hinting that cardiogenic diseases and accompanying electrolyte disorder interference in due course could help sepsis patients get more benefits in stroke prevention.
