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

Precision immunotherapy signifies the administration of the required type of immune intervention tailored to the state of immune activation at the appropriate time window. The classification of patients into the different states of immune activation is usually done by either a protein blood biomarker or a molecular blood endotype that is diagnostic of the precise immune state. Evidence coming from trials of the last decade suggests that immune interventions should be split into strategies aiming to attenuate the exaggerated immune responses, restore sepsis-induced immunoparalysis (SII) and restore the vascular tone. Suggested strategies to attenuate the immune responses are anakinra, nangibotide and tocilizumab. Biomarkers that guide their use are ferritin, soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 and C-reactive protein. Suggested strategies to restore SII are nivolumab, recombinant human interferon-gamma, CYT107, granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor and IgM-enriched immunoglobulin prepapations. Biomarkers that guide their use are the expression of the human leukocyte antigen DR on blood monocytes, the absolute lymphocyte count and blood levels of immunoglobulin M. One recently suggested strategy to restore vascular tone is adrecizumab, the use of which is guided by blood levels of bio-adrenomedulin. The use of these precision treatment strategies is still hampered by the need for large-scale randomized controlled trials.
