Prediction value of respiratory permutation entropy for hemodynamic instability events in critically ill patients with sepsis.
Article in BMC infectious diseases, 2025. 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
objectivesThe study aimed to investigate the association between features extracted from time-series of vital signs and hemodynamic instabilities in critically ill patients with sepsis.
methodsThe present study included a total of 9,248 sepsis patients from the eICU Collaborative Research Database (Version 2.0). The patients were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) for their initial hospitalization, had a minimum duration of ICU stay exceeding 6 h, and were aged between 15 and 80 years. Respiration permutation entropy (RPE), a time series feature extracted by tsfresh from 6-hour continuous vital signs monitoring records (heart rate, respiratory rate, and peripheral oxygen saturation) preceding hemodynamic instability events was analysed. The primary outcomes were the occurrence of the first hemodynamic instability event, ICU mortality, and hospital mortality. The prognostic value of respiration permutation entropy was evaluated by multivariable logistic regression models. Model performance was assessed by calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
resultsA total of 2200 patients (23.8%) experienced an episode of hemodynamic instability. Multivariable logistic models demonstrated that a significant association between RPE and an increased incidence of hemodynamic instability events in critically ill patients with sepsis with duration of ICU stay exceeding 6 h (odds ratio [OR] = 1.224, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.137–1.318). Furthermore, RPE was found to be associated with higher ICU mortality (OR = 1.311, 95% CI = 1.182–1.453) and hospital mortality (OR = 1.234, 95% CI = 1.129–1.349), particularly in male patients, with longer length of stay in ICU, higher sequential organ failure assessment scores, and cirrhosis, respectively. Importantly, this model achieved area under the curve (AUC) of 0.811 (95%CI = 0.801–0.822) for hemodynamic instability events, 0.761 (95%CI = 0.749–0.773) for hospital mortality and 0.779 (95%CI = 0.767–0.7990) for ICU mortality, respectively, in the ROC curve analyses.
conclusionsElevated respiratory permutation entropy is associated with an increased incidence of hemodynamic instability events, ICU mortality, and in-hospital mortality, potentially guiding timely and effective resuscitation in sepsis patients.
