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

Advances in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) have allowed safe performance of complex thoracic surgical procedures that were impossible before. Application of ECMO in general thoracic surgery is extremely rare, but allows life-saving procedures in patients in whom one-lung ventilation cannot be carried out safely. We present the case of a 66 year old man who underwent a challenging veno-venous ECMO assisted segmentectomy for a second primary lung cancer. One-lung ventilation was not feasible due to previous lobectomy on the contralateral side and consequent lack of respiratory function. After the surgical procedure was completed the ECMO was removed and under stable conditions followed the immediate tracheal extubation.
