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
Purpose: To estimate the overall incidence, risk factors, and clinical outcomes of electroencephalographic (EEG) seizures for adults and children after mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Method and measurements: This systematic review and meta-analysis were carried out in accordance with the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis) guidance document. MEDLINE EMBASE and CENTRAL were investigated for relevant studies. The related information was retrieved by two independent reviewers and all analyses were conducted by STATA (version 16.0; Stata Corporation, College Station, TX, United States). Result: Sixty studies including 36,191 adult and 55,475 pediatric patients with MCS were enrolled for evaluation. The study showed that the overall incidence of EEG seizures in adults was 2% (95%CI: 1-3%), in which 1% (95%CI: 1-2%) after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and 3% (95%CI: 1-6%) after extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). For pediatrics patients, the incidence of EEG seizures was 12% (95%CI: 11-14%), among which 12% (9-15%) after CPB and 13% (11-15%) after ECMO. The major risk factors of EEG seizures after MCS in adults were redo surgery (coefficient = 0.0436, Conclusion: EEG seizures after MCS were more common in pediatrics than in adults. In addition, the incidence of EEG seizure after ECMO was higher than CPB both in adults and children. It is expected that appropriate measures should be taken to control modifiable risk factors, thus improving the prognosis and increasing the long-term survival rate of MCS patients.
