[Mechanical circulatory support in cardiogenic shock].
Review in Medizinische Klinik, Intensivmedizin und Notfallmedizin, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Acute revascularization is of utmost importance in acute heart failure and infarct-related cardiogenic shock. Besides this therapy of the underlying disease, methods for rapid restoration of arterial blood pressure and sufficient organ perfusion are at the forefront. If conventional means such as volume management, inotropic support, or infusion of vasopressors fail in this situation, mechanical circulatory support may be indicated in selected cases. Noninvasive systems for automatic thorax compression are used for extended cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Intra-aortic balloon counter pulsation (IABP) and axial turbine pumps provide circulatory support and left ventricular unloading. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) devices consisting of a membrane oxygenator in combination with a centrifugal pump also support the gas exchange in cases of acute pulmonary failure. Using mechanical circulatory support allows lifesaving further diagnostic and therapeutic measures in selected cases, despite limited evidence. They help to restore sufficient arterial blood pressure and therefore organ perfusion in acute heart failure and cardiogenic shock.
