Review in World journal of emergency medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

backgroundEmergency patients with sepsis or septic shock are at high risk of death. Despite increasing attention to microhemodynamics, the clinical use of advanced microcirculatory assessment is limited due to its shortcomings. Since blood gas analysis is a widely used technique reflecting global oxygen supply and consumption, it may serve as a surrogate for microcirculation monitoring in septic treatment.

methodsWe performed a search using PubMed, Web of Science, and Google scholar. The studies and reviews that were most relevant to septic microcirculatory dysfunctions and blood gas parameters were identified and included.

resultsBased on the pathophysiology of oxygen metabolism, the included articles provided a general overview of employing blood gas analysis and its derived set of indicators for microhemodynamic monitoring in septic care. Notwithstanding flaws, several parameters are linked to changes in the microcirculation. A comprehensive interpretation of blood gas parameters can be used in order to achieve hemodynamic optimization in septic patients.

conclusionBlood gas analysis in combination with clinical performance is a reliable alternative for microcirculatory assessments. A deep understanding of oxygen metabolism in septic settings may help emergency physicians to better use blood gas analysis in the evaluation and treatment of sepsis and septic shock.
