Earlier ICU Transfer after CONCERN Early Warning System Score Escalation Reduced Sepsis-related Mortality: Results from a Multi-site Pragmatic Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial.

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 recognition and timely escalation of care are critical for improving sepsis outcomes. This post-hoc analysis of a multi-site clinical trial examined whether the timing of ICU transfer following CONCERN Early Warning System (EWS) score escalation was associated with in-hospital mortality among patients later diagnosed with sepsis. Among 54 patients with CONCERN score changes prior to unanticipated ICU transfer, shorter score-change-to-ICU-transfer time intervals were significantly associated with lower odds of in-hospital death. A 36-hour threshold emerged as a potential inflection point; all patients transferred after this time interval died in the hospital. No significant differences were observed in the ICU-arrival-to-sepsis time interval between early and late transfers. These findings highlight the importance of acting promptly on early warning systems and suggest that CONCERN EWS may offer a meaningful lead time for intervention improving outcomes for sepsis patients.
