Predictive values of IGF1, IGFBP3 and PCT for patients with sepsis-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome.
Article in SAGE open medicine, 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
Objectives: To explore the predictive value of serum IGF1, IGFBP3 and PCT for the development and prognosis of sepsis-induced ARDS. Methods: A total of 276 septic patients enrolled were divided into an ARDS group (144 cases) and a non-ARDS control group (132 cases). On admission, APACHE II and SOFA Scores were calculated, and serum PCT, IGF1, and IGFBP3 were measured. The differences of clinical and biomarkers between groups were analyzed using a Mann-Whitney Results: Compared with controls, patients with sepsis-induced ARDS exhibited significantly lower serum IGFBP3 and IGF1 but higher PCT concentrations. Serum IGFBP3 was negatively correlated with APACHE II scores ( Conclusion: Aberrant expressions of circulating IGF1, IGFBP3 and PCT are closely linked to the severity in patients with sepsis-induced ARDS. The combination of serum PCT and IGF1, and SOFA scores had a good predictive performance for identifying septic patients at high risk of ARDS. Serum IGFBP3 can serve as a valuable biomarker to evaluate the outcomes of sepsis-induced ARDS.
