Non-invasive urinary proteomic biomarkers for prognostic assessment in sepsis.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Early identification of the death risk of sepsis may improve short-term prognosis. The objective of this study was to identify urinary proteomic biomarkers and create a model to predict short-term outcomes in sepsis patients. A total of 46 sepsis patients selected from the intensive care unit of a comprehensive tertiary hospital were enrolled in this study. We used data-independent acquisition (DIA) proteomics to detect proteins in the urinary of death patients (n = 14) and survivals (n = 32). KEGG and GO analyses were conducted to investigate the possible functions of these proteins. Feature variables were selected from the differentially expressed proteins using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) and the random forest algorithms and by determining whether their proteins had an area under the curve (AUC) greater than 0.8. Nomogram model and ROC curves were constructed to evaluate the predictive efficacy of these identified protein biomarkers. In total, 2570 proteins were identified in urine. Statistical analysis revealed that 255 proteins exhibited differential expression, with 146 being upregulated and 109 downregulated. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses highlighted the involvement of key genes in processes such as the negative regulation of hemostasis, organization of the cortical actin cytoskeleton, the Rap1 signaling pathway, and cytoskeletal dynamics in muscle cells. Utilizing LASSO regression, random forest analysis, and a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve with an area under the curve (AUC) greater than 0.8, we identified potential protein biomarkers for predicting sepsis prognosis. Additionally, a nomogram incorporating biomarkers Solute Carrier Family 25 Member 24 (SLC25A24), Ubiquilin-1 (UBQLN1), and Cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein 3-like protein 3 (CREB3L3) demonstrated superior predictive accuracy for assessing the risk of sepsis-related mortality. This study has identified several novel proteomic biomarkers and has developed a practical prediction nomogram utilizing SLC25A24, UBQLN1, and CREB3L3 for the individualized prediction of sepsis mortality risk. This nomogram serves as a valuable tool in facilitating personalized treatment strategies.
