Intensive Care Unit-Acquired Weakness in Patients With Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Support: Frequency and Clinical Characteristics.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Background: Intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) is common in critical illness patients and is well described. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used as a life-saving method and patients with ECMO support often suffer more risk factors of ICU-AW. However, information on the frequency and clinical characteristics of ICU-AW in patients with ECMO support is lacking. Our study aims to clarify the frequency and characteristics of ICU-AW in ECMO patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study, ICU-AW was diagnosed when patients were discharged with a Medical Research Council (MRC) sum score <48. Clinical information was collected from the case report forms. Univariable analysis, LASSO regression analysis, and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the clinical data of individuals. Results: In ECMO population, 40 (80%) patients diagnosed with ICU-AW. On univariable analysis, the ICU-AW group had higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) [13.9 (6.5-21.3) versus 21.1 (14.3-27.9), Conclusion: The ICU-AW was common with a prevalence of 80% in the ECMO population. Mechanical ventilation time, deep sedation time, deep sedation time during ECMO operation, APACHE II, and lowest albumin level were risk factors of ICU-AW in ECMO population. The ECMO wasn't an independent risk factor of ICU-AW.
