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 characterized by an uncontrolled systemic inflammatory response that contributes to organ dysfunction, failure and eventually death. The importance of the adrenal glands for survival under conditions of physiologic stress has been known since the early 20th century. Clinical studies explored the potential therapeutic role of corticosteroids in the treatment of sepsis and septic shock. Despite controversies on the benefit-to-risk ratio, they are widely used. The longstanding adoption of corticosteroids in the treatment of severe sepsis likely relies on the prompt reversal of septic shock often seen at the bedside. This current review was designed to provide readers with a clear understanding and rationale for using corticosteroids, while presenting a review of the Surviving Sepsis Guidelines and the results from the implementation of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign.
