Mortality prediction using the Shock Index and Modified Shock Index in the Emergency Department.
Article in Revista brasileira de enfermagem, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesto compare the Shock Index and the Modified Shock Index in predicting in-hospital mortality among patients diagnosed with shock and admitted to the Emergency Department.
methodsa retrospective cohort (2022), including patients ≥18 years. The predictive ability was estimated using areas under the curve, sensitivity, and specificity, considering shock etiologies.
results365 patients were included, (25.5 cases per 1,000 visits), mortality (75.3%), with a worse initial hemodynamic profile. Septic shock (69%) and hypovolemic shock (13.2%) predominated. The Shock Index demonstrated better areas under de curve in mixed (0.706) and septic (0.700) shock. The Modified Shock Index showed superiority in mixed (0.735), septic (0.700), and cardiogenic (0.700) shock, standing out in septic shock (sensitivity 96.0%; specificity 86.3%).
conclusionsthe Modified Shock Index demonstrated greater predictive ability for mortality, suggesting its usefulness in nursing clinical practice.
