Description
Chuangying Xie and co-authors review whether the CALLY index predicts outcomes for patients with sepsis. The index blends markers of inflammation, nutrition, and immune strength. Single studies disagree on its value, so a pooled review is needed.
The team searched many databases in English and Chinese sources. They kept studies that linked the index to death or to survivor levels. Results were pooled with a random-effects model across studies. The review covered a handful of studies with thousands of patients. Pooled levels did not differ clearly between survivors and those who died. The authors weigh this mixed picture for clinical use. Their work shows where stronger studies are still needed.
