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: Septic cardiomyopathy is an acute myocardial injury caused by sepsis with high mortality. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) is an important parameter for evaluating right ventricular systolic function, but its relationship with prognosis in septic cardiomyopathy has not been clearly elucidated. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 93 patients diagnosed with septic cardiomyopathy admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). All patients underwent TAPSE measurements within 24 h of admission and were divided into abnormal (TAPSE < 1.6 cm, Results: Among the 93 patients, 25 (26.8%) died within 28 days after ICU admission. The mean TAPSE value in non-survivors was significantly lower than in survivors (1.24 ± 0.21 vs. 1.72 ± 0.20 cm, Conclusion: TAPSE is independently associated with 28-day mortality in patients with septic cardiomyopathy and can serve as a valuable indicator for assessing short-term prognosis in these patients. Incorporating TAPSE assessment into routine examinations for septic cardiomyopathy patients may assist in identifying high-risk patients early for clinical monitoring.
