Electrical Impedance Tomography-Informed Regional Functional Phenotypes in Sepsis-Associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.
Review in Journal of inflammation research, 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
Sepsis-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (SA-ARDS) is a heterogeneous syndrome in which systemic inflammation, vascular dysfunction, altered fluid balance, chest-wall loading, and respiratory effort may produce regional abnormalities not captured by global respiratory variables. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) provides continuous bedside assessment of regional ventilation and, increasingly, regional perfusion. This review summarizes EIT-derived measures relevant to SA-ARDS and examines how key sepsis-associated mechanisms may influence regional ventilation, perfusion, and mechanics. Six candidate functional patterns are proposed: collapse-shunt dominance, overdistension-dead-space dominance, perfusion-defect dominance, diffuse low aeration with limited recruitability, abdominal pressure-diaphragm interaction, and effort-related regional asynchrony. These patterns are neither mutually exclusive nor specific to SA-ARDS and may evolve over time.
