Association of Fluid Balance and Survival of Pediatric Patients Treated With Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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 effect of positive fluid balance (FB) on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) outcomes in pediatric patients remains unknown. We sought to evaluate if positive FB in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) patients with respiratory and/or cardiac failure necessitating ECMO was associated with increased morbidity or mortality. This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study of data from the deidentified PEDiatric ECMO Outcomes Registry (PEDECOR). Patients entered into the database from 2014 to 2017, who received ECMO support, were included. A total of 168 subjects met the study criteria. Univariate analysis showed no significant difference in total FB on ECMO days 1-5 between survivors and non-survivors [median 90 ml/kg (IQR 18-208.5) for survivors vs. median 139.7 ml/kg (IQR 11.2-300.6) for non-survivors,
