Technique for circuit exchange in high-risk patients on extracorporeal life support.
Article in Perfusion, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Exchanging circuits in patients undergoing extracorporeal life support (ECLS) for component failure can be a life-threatening endeavor if the patient has no native organ function and is fully dependent on ECLS. Traditional circuit exchanges involve replacing the entire circuit at once, leading to a sufficient loss of support that risks hemodynamic deterioration in the absence of mechanical ventilation or mechanical circulatory support. A staged approach is described using a parallel circuit configuration to reduce the risk of physiologic decompensation in patients with total dependence on ECLS. The approach involves splicing in a second primed circuit in parallel, transitioning flow incrementally from old to new circuit, and removing the old circuit. This approach provides hemodynamic and physiologic stability even in patients with absent underlying cardiopulmonary function.
