sTREM2 in the prognostic evaluation of acute lung injury after cardiac surgery in infants.

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
backgroundPrevious studies have shown that TREM2 plays a protective role in acute lung injury (ALI). This prospective study aimed to investigate the role of sTREM2 as a forecasting factor for ALI in infants after pediatric cardiac surgery undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
methodsSeventy-five consecutive patients younger than 1 year who underwent cardiac surgery were enrolled in this study. Sixty-one fulfilled the inclusion criteria and had been divided into ALI and non-ALI groups. Children's demographic characteristics and clinical data were collected. Perioperative sTREM2 levels were analyzed at five timepoints.
resultsIn this study, children in the ALI group were younger, lighter, with higher RACHS-1 scores and underwent significantly longer CPB time. Post-CPB ALI had an impact on clinical outcomes, which contributed to a longer duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU and hospital stay than non-ALI group. Significant differences were manifested off-CPB, 1 h/6 h after CPB, and day 1 after surgery between the two groups. Binary logistic models revealed that off-CPB sTREM2 was significantly associated with the incidence of post-CPB ALI after adjustment. ROC analysis showed that the AUC of off-CPB sTREM2 level was 0.791, and the optimal cutoff value was 788.6 pg/ml.
conclusionsThe off-CPB sTREM2 level was an independent prognostic factor for post-CPB ALI in infants. IMPACT: Plasma sTREM2 works together with downstream TREM2 to regulate inflammation response by binding the receptor to other cells. Previous studies have shown that TREM2 plays a protective role in ischemia-reperfusion and has anti-inflammatory effects on acute lung injury (ALI). This study analyzed the risk factors of post-cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) ALI. We found that weight and off-CPB sTREM2 level were independent prognostic factors for post-CPB ALI. Plasma sTREM2 may serve as an early biomarker in the prognostic evaluation of acute lung injury after cardiac surgery in infants.
