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

Burn injuries are the most frequent injuries in the world, with a death rate of 2.3-3.6%. Children and people of working age constitute 85-90% of the burn cases. Burn injury results in metabolic problems, a generalized inflammatory response, inefficient energy use, and other physiological alternations that may cause organ and system dysfunction and sepsis. Sepsis is mostly caused by multiple organ failures and has unique characteristics in burn injuries, which make it the most dangerous complication of burn injuries. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between sepsis in burn patients and the level of interleukin 8 (IL-8) in their serum. In total, 60 patients with burn injuries were included in this study. Blood samples were obtained from 60 burn patients and 30 healthy individuals as controls. The BacT/Alert and Vitek2 systems were used to identify the bacteria and determine their susceptibility to these bacteria. Moreover, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine IL-8 serum levels. Based on the results, elevated levels of IL-8 were observed in the serum of burn patients, compared to healthy individuals. Concentration of IL-8 was significantly higher in patients with sepsis, compared to healthy individuals without sepsis.
