1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Sepsis caused by Gram-negative bloodstream infection is characterized by dynamic host responses, but the longitudinal and incremental prognostic value of calprotectin remains uncertain. We conducted a multicenter retrospective observational study of 82 adults with Gram-negative bloodstream infection, sepsis, and acute respiratory failure. Serum calprotectin, routine biomarkers, cytokines, and growth factors were measured at diagnosis before antibiotic therapy (T0), day 3 (T1), and day 7 (T2), and compared according to 28-day survival. Sixty-four patients survived, and 18 died. Calprotectin declined over time but remained higher in non-survivors at T0 (
