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

Background: To date, the correlation between CD4 on the monocytes (mCD4) expression and the prognosis of patients with septic shock remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to analyze the expression of mCD4 in these patients and further evaluate whether mCD4 expression correlates with either the recovery from multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) or mortality. Methods: The study participants were recruited from a tertiary general hospital in China (Affiliated Dongyang Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University). Sepsis and septic shock were diagnosed based on the diagnostic criteria of Sepsis-3. MODS was defined as a Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score of at least two organ systems ≥2. Persistent MODS was defined as the continual meeting of the MODS criteria when re-evaluated one week after admission (day 7). A logistic regression model was used to test whether mCD4 was an independent prognostic factor for mortality in patients with septic shock. A paired sample rank sum test was used to examine the correlation between mCD4 expression and MODS recovery. Result: The study recruited 79 patients with septic shock as the study group, 74 patients with sepsis as the disease control group, and 56 volunteers as healthy controls. In the first 24 h after admission (day 1), mCD4 expression was significantly reduced in patients with septic shock compared to healthy controls and patients with sepsis. Moreover, mCD4 expression was an independent prognostic factor for in-hospital and 28 day mortality in patients with septic shock. mCD4 expression did not show significant differences in patients with persistent MODS on day 7 compared to day 1. However, mCD4 expression was significantly higher in patients without persistent MODS on day 7 than on day 1. Conclusion: mCD4 expression is significantly reduced in patients with septic shock, which is an independent prognostic factor for mortality and closely related to recovery from MODS.
