Optimizing Pediatric Sepsis Diagnosis: A Narrative Review of Two Decades of Evolution from SIRS to Phoenix Consensus.

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
Pediatric sepsis definitions have evolved significantly from the 2005 International Pediatric Sepsis Consensus Conference (IPSCC) to the 2024 Phoenix Sepsis criteria. However, inconsistencies in previous models, including Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) and Sepsis-3, impacted diagnosis and treatment. A global task force conducted clinician surveys, meta-analysis, and validation studies, culminating in the Phoenix Sepsis Score as a refined diagnostic model. The Phoenix Sepsis Score assesses four organ systems, improving diagnostic accuracy and overcoming limitations seen in earlier models. This narrative review examines the evolution of pediatric sepsis definitions over the past two decades, from the 2005 International Pediatric Sepsis Consensus Conference (IPSCC) criteria to the recently published Phoenix Sepsis Score; providing a standardized and globally relevant approach to improving early detection and treatment outcomes.
