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

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic value of the lung ultrasound (LUS) score in patients with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (pARDS) who received extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of a tertiary hospital from January 2016 to June 2021. The severe pARDS patients who received ECMO were enrolled in this study. LUS score was measured at initiation of ECMO (LUS-0 h), then at 24 h (LUS-24 h), 48 h (LUS-48 h), and 72 h (LUS-72 h) during ECMO, and when weaned from ECMO (LUS-wean). The value of LUS scores at the first 3 days of ECMO as a prognostic predictor was analyzed. Results: Twenty-nine children with severe pARDS who received ECMO were enrolled with a median age of 26 (IQR 9, 79) months. The median duration of ECMO support was 162 (IQR 86, 273) h and the PICU mortality was 31.0% (9/29). The values of LUS-72 h and LUS-wean were significantly lower in survivors than that in non-survivors (both Conclusion: Lung ultrasound score is a promising tool for predicting the prognosis in patients with ARDS under ECMO support. Moreover, LUS-72 h ≥ 24 is associated with high risk of PICU mortality in patients with pARDS who received ECMO.
