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

Endothelial glycocalyx (eGCX) shedding contributes to microvascular endotheliopathy in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and is a potential underrecognized source of phenotypic heterogeneity. In pediatric ARDS (PARDS), we examined whether circulating heparan sulfate (HS) signatures, as readouts of eGCX shedding, capture inter-individual variability beyond other eGCX components and protein biomarkers, whether specific HS structural features are enriched, and whether they correlate with heparanase-1 (HPSE) activity. We retrospectively analyzed plasma samples (2018-2020) from children with and without PARDS. Mass spectrometry quantified glycosaminoglycans and sulfation subtypes alongside HPSE activity, while protein biomarkers were measured by multiplex assay. Among 46 children (36 PARDS, 10 no PARDS), principal component analysis identified three components explaining 63% of variance. The primary component (PC1) was driven by 6-
