Increasing Mortality in Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for COVID-19-Associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.
Article in Critical care explorations, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesDetermine the factors associated with mortality in venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) patients with COVID-19 infection and provide an updated report of clinical outcomes for patients treated with V-V ECMO for COVID-19 in Minnesota.
designMulticenter prospective observational study.
settingThe four adult Extracorporeal Life Support Organization-certified Centers of Excellence in Minnesota. PATIENTS: A total of 100 patients treated with V-V ECMO for COVID-19-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) from March 2020 to May 2021.
interventionsNot applicable. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN
resultsThe primary outcome was 60-day survival for patients treated with V-V ECMO for COVID-19. Outcomes of patients treated from November 2020 to May 2021(cohort 2) were compared with data from a previous cohort of patients, collected from March 2020 to October 2020 (cohort 1). The data from both cohorts were merged into a single dataset (Combined Cohort). Survival on V-V ECMO due to COVID-19-associated ARDS significantly decreased after October 2020 (63% vs 41%;
conclusionsThere was a significant increase in mortality for patients treated with V-V ECMO for COVID-19-associated ARDS in cohort 2 compared with cohort 1. Further research is required to determine the cause of the worsening trend in mortality.
