Successful pulmonary embolectomy with central extra-corporeal membranous oxygenation for acute pulmonary thromboembolism.
Article in Surgery today, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 treatment of acute pulmonary thromboembolism with a hemorrhagic condition is quite challenging and it usually presents a clinical dilemma. Pulmonary embolectomy is generally performed with cardiopulmonary bypass; however, cardiopulmonary bypass usually requires full anticoagulation which cannot be used for patients with a hemorrhagic condition. We herein report a successful case of pulmonary embolectomy that was accomplished using central veno-arterial extracorporeal membranous oxygenation, instead of cardiopulmonary bypass, for a patient with an acute fatal pulmonary thromboembolism and hemorrhagic cerebral infarction following lung cancer surgery. Our strategy consists of surgical embolectomy under central veno-arterial extracorporeal membranous oxygenation with partial anticoagulation and the placement of an inferior vena cava filter to prevent recurrence without the use of anticoagulation therapy.
