Serotonin Signaling and the Hyperpermeable Endothelial Barrier in Sepsis: Clues to a Molecular Mechanism.
Article in Journal of community medicine & public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Sepsis is characterized by a severe systemic inflammatory response caused by hyperpermeability of the endothelial barrier resulting microvascular leakage, which is a leading factor to multiorgan failure. In sepsis, the hyperpermeable endothelial cells contribute to the activation of platelets, which release numerous mediators that affect coagulation, inflammatory response and are believed to directly or indirectly affect the integrity of the endothelial barrier. One such mediator is serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), a signaling molecule which mediates a number of cellular functions including regulation of cytoskeletal dynamics associated with barrier function of endothelial cells. The actions of 5-HT are mediated by different types of receptors and terminated via an uptake mechanism of a 5-HT transporter (SERT) on the platelet and endothelial cell. Earlier studies revealed unexpected discoveries concerning the impact of 5-HT signaling on the permeability of the endothelial barrier. These findings have been supported by the clinical reports on the anti-inflammatory property of 5-HT reuptake inhibitor, SSRIs in treating sepsis-related morbidity and mortality. This review focuses on a wide-range of literature to pinpoint cellular and molecular mechanisms that mediate 5-HT-induced microvascular injury in sepsis pathogenesis.
