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: Understanding the dynamic changes in immune indicators during sepsis and their predictive value for Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is crucial for improving patient outcomes. Methods: This single-center, observational retrospective study was conducted at Lishui Central Hospital, Zhejiang Province. Patients diagnosed with Sepsis-3 were categorized into non-ARDS and ARDS groups based on ARDS development. Data collection included demographics, clinical data, and immune parameters. Immune parameters were collected on days 1, 3, and 7 post-admission. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified independent risk factors for ARDS, and a nomogram model was constructed. The predictive ability of the model was evaluated using ROC curves. Results: Multivariate analysis identified key factors for the nomogram, including CD4, CD8, Treg, lymphocyte, IgG, and IgA levels on Days 3 and 7. On Day 3, CD8 (P < 0.001), Tregs (P = 0.021), IgG (P < 0.001), and IgA (P < 0.001) showed significant negative correlations with ARDS development. On Day 7, CD4 (P < 0.001), CD8 (P < 0.001), lymphocyte count (P < 0.001), and IgA (P < 0.001) similarly demonstrated significant negative correlations with ARDS risk. The nomogram model had an AUC of 0.998 (95% CI: 0.997-0.999), indicating high predictive ability. Conclusion: Early dynamic changes in immune indicators, including CD8, CD4, Treg, IgA, IgG, and Lymphocyte, predict ARDS development in ICU sepsis patients.
