Global Research Trends on Endothelial Glycocalyx in Sepsis: A Bibliometric Analysis.
Review in BioMed research international, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundSepsis remains a major global health challenge, with glycocalyx dysfunction playing an important role in its pathogenesis. Recent research highlights EG degradation as a key contributor to vascular permeability, inflammation, and organ failure. Despite growing interest, a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of global research trends on EG in sepsis is lacking.
methodsWe conducted a bibliometric analysis using data from Web of Science and Scopus (2005-2025). Inclusion criteria were original English-language research articles. Bibliometrix R-package was employed to analyze publication trends, citation metrics, collaboration networks, and keyword co-occurrence.
resultsAmong 217 publications, research output increased 13-fold (2005-2023), with Shock and Critical Care as leading journals. The United States, Japan, and Australia were top contributors, with strong international collaborations. Key themes included EG biomarkers, microcirculatory dysfunction, and therapeutic strategies. Emerging trends involved COVID-19-associated EG injury and novel imaging techniques.
conclusionThis study maps the evolution of EG research in sepsis, highlighting exponential growth, key contributors, and thematic shifts. Future directions include validating EG biomarkers, developing targeted therapies, and enhancing global research equity.
