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

backgroundRetroperitoneal hemorrhage (RPH) is a rare and severe complication in patients undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Clinical diagnosis is difficult. CASE SUMMARY: Three cases of RPH patients with corona virus disease-19 (COVID-19) were included in this study. All three suffered from respiratory failure, were treated with veno-venous or veno-arterial-venous ECMO, and experienced RPH during ECMO treatment. Two of the COVID-19 cases were diagnosed after the patients experienced abdominal pain. The other patient exhibited decreases in the ECMO circuit flow rate and hemoglobin level. Two cases were treated by transcatheter arterial embolization, and one was treated conservatively. The hemorrhage in each of the three cases did not deteriorate. Satisfactory treatment results were achieved for the three patients because of prompt diagnosis and treatment.

conclusionAlthough the incidence of RPH during ECMO treatment is low, the risk is increased by anticoagulant use and local mechanical injury. If declines in blood flow velocity and hemoglobin are detected, RPH should be considered, and prompt aggressive therapy should be started.
