Variations in capillary and serum lactates levels based on different etiologies of septic patients in the emergency department.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Sepsis is a life-threating and time-depending condition. This study examined the association between sepsis etiology and variations in capillary and serum lactate levels, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and diastolic shock index in emergency department patients. Methods: This study, conducted between 2021 and 2022 at the Emergency Department of Ferrara, included the following criteria: (i) clinical suspect of infectious disease; (ii) qSOFA ≥2; (iii) age ≥18 years; (iv) signed informed consent. Etiologies were: (i) negative cultures (NC); (ii) Gram positive (GP); (iii) Gram negative (GN); (iv) fungal infections (FI). Results: Among the 200 included patients, 104 (52.0%) had NC, 36 (18.0%) GP, 53 (26.5%) GN and 7 (3.5%) FI. CLs ( Conclusion: All parameters differed according to sepsis etiology, thus improving early prediction of sepsis etiology and its pharmacological management.
