Factor Impacting Quality of Life Among Sepsis Survivors During and After Hospitalization: A Systematic Review of Current Empirical Evidence.
Review in Journal of multidisciplinary healthcare, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: There remains a gap in understanding post-sepsis outcomes, particularly regarding the factors that influence the quality of life (QOL) among sepsis survivors during and after hospitalization. Objective: To determine factors impacting QOL among sepsis survivors during and after hospitalization based on the evaluation and synthesis of current evidence. Methods: This review encompassed studies published from January 2020 to December 2024, sourced from Scopus, PubMed, Medline, ScienceDirect, CINAHL Plus with Full Text, and Web of Science. The process of identifying, screening, excluding, and including articles followed the guidelines set by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA). Data synthesis for theme generation was conducted using the convergent integrated analysis framework as recommended by the Joanna Briggs Institute. Results: A total of 1164 records were identified from the databases. After removing 130 duplicates, 1034 articles remained for screening based on their titles and abstracts according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. At this stage, 1021 articles did not meet the criteria and were excluded, leaving 13 articles eligible for full-text screening. During this phase, 5 articles were excluded for various reasons, resulting in eight studies being included in the systematic review. Data synthesis of these studies revealed seven themes related to factors impacting QOL among sepsis survivors during and after hospitalization: 1) Physical Health Dimension, 2) Mental Health Dimension, 3) Treatment During Hospitalization, 4) Spiritual Dimension, 5) Social Support, 6) Mortality, and 7) Blood Biomarkers. Conclusion: This systematic review provides valuable insights into the factors affecting the quality of life among sepsis survivors during and after hospitalization. These findings enhance the current knowledge base and offer clinicians, researchers, and policymakers actionable insights to improve outcomes and well-being for sepsis survivors.
