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

Severe tuberculosis during pregnancy may progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and venovenous (VV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) should be considered if conventional lung-protective mechanical ventilation fails. However, thrombocytopenia often occurs with ECMO, and there are limited reports of alternative anticoagulant therapies for pregnant patients with thrombocytopenia during ECMO. This report describes the first case of a pregnant patient who received argatroban during ECMO and recovered. Furthermore, we summarized the existing literature on VV-ECMO and argatroban in pregnant patients. A 31-year-old woman at 17 weeks of gestation was transferred to our hospital with ARDS secondary to severe tuberculosis. We initiated VV-ECMO after implementing a protective ventilation strategy and other conventional therapies. Initially, we selected unfractionated heparin anticoagulant therapy. However, on ECMO day 3, the patient's platelet count and antithrombin III (AT-III) level declined to 27 × 10
