Presepsin as a Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarker of Sepsis-Associated Acute Kidney Injury: A Scoping Review of Clinical Evidence.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 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
Sepsis is a complex clinical syndrome associated with high morbidity and mortality and organ dysfunction, most notably acute kidney injury. Early recognition determines crucial clinical decisions for septic individuals. This rapid diagnosis depends on the accuracy of biomarkers in the context of coexisting renal dysfunction. In this context, the value of presepsin has been investigated and challenged for a decade, with no definitive answers. This scoping review aims to evaluate the existing evidence regarding the accuracy of presepsin as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI). We obtained 130 articles by searching for references in databases (PubMed/Medline, Web of Science, Embase, and Scopus) following the PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Sequential selection by three independent readers resulted in nine references retained for full analysis. Presepsin demonstrated good diagnostic and prognostic accuracy in patients with AKI, based on observations in small patient groups; however, it requires specific cutoff values, whose determination depends on new controlled and randomized studies.
