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

objectiveTo investigate the association between postoperative complications and prognosis in critically illed patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), so as to improve the survival rate of patients in cardiac care unit (CCU).

methods43 patients who received adjuvant therapy with ECMO in our hospital were retrospectively collected and divided into survival group (n=23) and death group (n=20) according to their survival and death during hospitalization. Patients in both groups were treated with ECMO adjuvant therapy. The levels of serum total bilirubin (STB), alanine transaminase (ALT), creatine (Cr), lactic acid (Lac) and urine volume in two groups were evaluated, and the postoperative complications of two groups were observed.

resultsECMO was performed as adjuvant therapy in both groups. The serum levels of STB, ALT, Cr and Lac in survival group were significantly lower than those in death group (

conclusionECMO can significantly improve the survival rate of patients in CCU. When the serum levels of STB, ALT, Cr and Lac decrease and urine volume increases, liver and kidney function injury is mild, with less postoperative complications and good prognosis. Therefore, monitoring STB, ALT, Cr, Lac and urine volume is able to adjust treatment plan in time, reduce postoperative complications and improve prognosis quality, thus has great positive clinical significance.
