Review in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Recent advances in veno-arterial (VA) and veno-venous (VV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) technology and management have enabled us to support patients with cardiac and/or pulmonary failure, who may have previously been considered untreatable. VA ECMO and VV ECMO are by definition transient therapies and serve as a bridge to recovery, bridge to decision, bridge to transplant, or bridge to no recovery. Weaning ECMO should be considered for all patients once native cardiac and pulmonary function show signs of recovery. Currently, there are no universally accepted protocols for weaning VA and VV ECMO, and consequently, each individual center follows their own weaning protocols. The aim of this review article is to describe different approaches to safely wean from VA and VV ECMO.
