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

The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic disrupted health care delivery in every respect, including critical care resources and the transport of patients requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Innovative solutions allowing for safe helicopter air transport of these critical patients is needed because extracorporeal membrane oxygenation resources are only available in specialty centers. We present a case demonstrating the interfacility collaboration of care for a patient with coronavirus disease 2019 infection and the lessons learned from the air transport. Careful planning, coordination, communication, and teamwork contributed to the safe transport of this patient and several others subsequently.
