Childhood Obesity and Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: Special Considerations for Successful Outcomes.
Article in Journal of pediatric intensive care, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The effects of obesity on venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) outcomes in pediatric population are unknown. We performed retrospective analysis of 41 children (age 2-18 years) undergoing VA-ECMO. The percentage difference between actual body weight and lean body weight, referred to as Δmass, was calculated. Ratios of Δmass to ECMO flow were calculated at 4 and 24 hours. In patients with Δmass:flow ≥ 0.1 at 4 hours, higher 24-hour lactates (20.0 vs. 14.5 mg/dL;
