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

introductionDue to improved technology and increased application the mortality during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is constantly declining. Nevertheless, complications including haemorrhage or thrombus formation remain frequent. Local mitigation of coagulation within an ECMO system to prevent thrombus formation on ECMO components and optimizing systemic anticoagulation is an approach to reduce clotting and bleeding complications at once. Foreign surfaces of ECMO systems, activate platelets (PLTs), which besides their major role in coagulation, can trigger the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contributing to robust thrombus formation. The impact of a reduced PLT count on PLT activation and NET formation is of paramount importance and worth investigating.

resultsThe PLT

conclusionsThis study demonstrated that the reduction of PLTs within an ECMO system is associated with limited PLT activation and NET formation, which reduces clot stability but is not sufficient to inhibit clot formation per se.
