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: Hemostatic complications and the need for large amounts of blood products are major obstacles during veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). Additionally, the occurrence of coagulopathy after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) affects systemic heparinization in pediatric post-cardiotomy patients. This study compares hemostatic complications in pediatric post-cardiotomy VA-ECMO patients for failure to wean from CPB with those who received post-cardiotomy VA-ECMO for other indications, while also exploring the relationship between different stages-hemostatic complications and the timing of systemic heparinization. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 146 pediatric patients who received post-cardiotomy VA-ECMO support (CPB-ECMO, n=96 Results: We found that the risk of early bleeding was significantly increased in patients who failed to wean from CPB. The presence of early bleeding was accompanied by the higher demand for blood products transfusion in the CPB-ECMO group, and for treatment the patients received a longer delayed continuous heparin infusion. As a result of using delayed systemic heparinization to avoid early bleeding, early hemolysis increased in the CPB-ECMO group. A delayed systemic heparinization of 9.5 hours showed the best Youden index results and the overall greatest accuracy in predicting early hemolysis. Conclusions: A direct transition from CPB to ECMO in pediatric post-cardiotomy patients significantly increases early bleeding. Delayed systemic heparinization to reduce early bleeding has good discrimination for predicting early hemolysis in the CPB-ECMO group. Coagulopathy is complex in pediatric post-cardiotomy VA-ECMO patients who failed to wean from CPB, and, as such, it is extremely important to monitor coagulation-related indicators in multiple dimensions to determine the timing of systemic heparinization.
