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, a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection, lacks effective treatments targeting its pervasive immune dysregulation. Despite growing interest in neuroimmune interactions, there remains a fragmented understanding of how distinct brain regions integrate peripheral immune signals and orchestrate systemic immune responses in sepsis. Emerging evidence highlights the brain as a master regulator of systemic immunity in sepsis through the neuro-immune-endocrine network. This review summarizes recent advances in understanding how distinct brain regions, including the hypothalamus, brainstem, cortex and cerebellum, sense peripheral inflammation and feedback-regulate systemic immune responses via dedicated neural circuits, neurotransmitters, and autonomic outputs. We also highlight the therapeutic potential of neuromodulation techniques designed to target these central circuits and discuss their implications for developing future precision medicine strategies in sepsis management.
