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

As more and more studies have shown that venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) improves oxygenation and prognosis of critical patients, VV-ECMO has been frequently used in critical patients for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Prone positioning (PP) is a postural therapy for ARDS, which permits for better ventilation/perfusion ratio (V/Q) matching, improvement of hypoxemia. Some articles revealed that performing PP during ECMO for refractory respiratory failure is feasible; however, the results obtained were controversial. Therefore, we performed a systematic review to further assess the effects of PP during ECMO for refractory respiratory failure. Six studies with 465 subjects were enrolled. Four articles examined changes of PaO2/FiO2 ratio after PP during VV-ECMO; PaO2/FiO2 ratio improved from 18.5 to 62 mmHg. Our analysis inferred that the PP-ECMO group did not have a significant advantage in survival at discharge (odds risk 1.42, 95% confidence interval 0.92-2.18; p = 0.11) compared with the ECMO group. We found that the PP-ECMO group had a significantly longer duration than the ECMO group (MD 5.37, 95% CI 4.19-6.54, I
