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-induced liver injury (SILI) is a fatal complication of organ failure that currently lacks reliable biomarkers for early diagnosis and risk prediction. This study aimed to explore the link between the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) and SILI in adult patients with sepsis in the intensive care unit (ICU) at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital.
methodsThis single-center retrospective study analyzed the baseline characteristics of patients with sepsis admitted to the ICU between 2020 and 2024. Multifactorial logistic regression was used to identify independent risk factors for SILI. Curve fitting and Subgroup analyzes were performed to provide evidence for the stratified management of patients with different clinical characteristics. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to determine the predictive capacity of the SII.
resultsA total of 231 patients were included, of whom 53 (22.9%) developed SILI during ICU hospitalization. Patients with SILI exhibited a significantly higher in-hospital mortality rate than non-SILI cases (52.8% vs. 25.3%, p < 0.001). Elevated SII at ICU admission was strongly associated with SILI development (p < 0.001). Multivariable logistic regression identified the SII as an independent risk factor for SILI. ROC curve analysis demonstrated that SII had superior predictive performance for SILI occurrence, with an area under the curve of 0.85 (95% CI: 0.784-0.907).
conclusionThis retrospective study revealed a substantial association between high SII and SILI in adult ICU patients with sepsis, suggesting that SII is a promising indicator for post-sepsis SILI risk prediction.
