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

Despite venovenous or venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) being increasingly used in patients with severe acute respiratory disease syndrome, severe cardiogenic shock, and refractory cardiac arrest, mortality rates still remain high mainly because of the severity of the underlying disease and the numerous complications associated with initiation of ECMO. Induced hypothermia might minimize several pathological pathways present in patients requiring ECMO; even though numerous studies conducted in the experimental setting have reported promising results, there are currently no recommendations suggesting the routine use of this therapy in patients requiring ECMO. In this review, we summarized the existing evidence on the use of induced hypothermia in patients requiring ECMO. Induced hypothermia was a feasible and relatively safe intervention in this setting; however, the effects on clinical outcomes remain uncertain. Whether controlled normothermia has an impact on these patients compared with no temperature control remains unknown. Further randomized controlled trials are required to better understand the role and impact of such therapy in patients requiring ECMO according to the underlying disease.
