Review in Journal of inflammation research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07658001 (Prognostic Value of Fecal Lactate and the Fecal-to-Serum Lactate Gradient in Resuscitation Response Among Critically Ill Patients With Tissue Hypoperfusion), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

Sepsis is a disorder of the immune response to infection or infectious factors with high morbidity and mortality in clinical settings. The lactylation of lysine residues, fueled by lactate, plays a pivotal role in its pathophysiology. In conducting a literature review on sepsis-related research, we employed a systematic approach to ensure comprehensiveness and accuracy. Initially, we conducted an extensive literature search through the PubMed database, utilizing a range of keywords including "sepsis", "lactate", "lactylation", and "epigenetic modification". The aim was to capture the most recent research related to the pathophysiological mechanisms of sepsis, metabolic disorders, and the role of lactylation. The results of the literature review revealed a close link between sepsis and metabolic dysfunction, particularly the pivotal role of lactylation in regulating immune responses and inflammatory processes. Lactate, not only an energy metabolic byproduct produced during glycolysis, affects the activity of various proteins, including those involved in immune regulation and cell signaling, through lactylation. In the context of sepsis, changes in the levels of lactylation may be closely associated with the severity and prognosis of the disease. In summary, lactylation, as an emerging type of epigenetic modification, provides a new perspective for the diagnosis and treatment of sepsis. Future research needs to further elucidate the exact mechanisms of lactylation in sepsis and explore its potential as a therapeutic target.
