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

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between transient return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) before extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation and outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients, who were resuscitated with extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). Methods: This study was a secondary analysis of the SAVE-J II study, which was a retrospective multicentre registry study involving 36 participating institutions in Japan. We classified patients into two groups according to the presence or absence of transient ROSC before ECMO initiation. Transient ROSC was defined as any palpable pulse of ≥1 min before ECMO initiation. The primary outcome was favourable neurological outcomes (cerebral performance categories 1-2). Results: Of 2,157 patients registered in the SAVE-J II study, 1,501 met the study inclusion criteria; 328 (22%) experienced transient ROSC before ECMO initiation. Patients with transient ROSC had better outcomes than those without ROSC (favourable neurological outcome, 26% vs 12%, Conclusions: In OHCA patients resuscitated with ECPR, transient ROSC before ECMO initiation was associated with favourable outcomes. Hence, transient ROSC is a predictor of improved outcomes after ECPR.
