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.

Abstract

Background: Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is essential life support in patients with severe acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure. However, biopsies should be considered for some patients with unknown aetiology. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) in such patients. Methods: All patients with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure of unknown aetiology who underwent TBLC with VV-ECMO support were retrospectively reviewed. Patients' characteristics, ventilation settings, procedure parameters, complications, pathological diagnosis and survival were summarised and analysed. Results: Eight female and five male patients with VV-ECMO support underwent TBLC. The median age was 58 (interquartile range (IQR) 38-67) years old. Concurrent diseases were present in 10 of the 13 patients, seven of which were immunosuppressed. The median time between biopsy and VV-ECMO establishment was 2.0 (IQR 0.5-6.5) days. No patient died from the procedure. Neither pneumothorax nor severe bleeding occurred in any of the patients. Five of the 13 patients experienced moderate bleeding, and all bleeding events were successfully controlled with prophylactic balloon blockers. Pathological diagnosis by TBLC was obtained in all patients, and the diagnosis of diffuse alveolar damage was made in nine of them. Conclusions: In patients with VV-ECMO support, the TBLC procedure is generally safe when standardised bleeding prophylaxis is in place. TBLC contributes to identifying underlying aetiologies in patients with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure of unknown aetiology.
