Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Postcardiotomy Cardiogenic Shock.
Review in Methodist DeBakey cardiovascular journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Postcardiotomy extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (PC-ECMO), the most frequent indication for ECMO in the United States, is increasingly used as the first-line mechanical circulatory support in patients who are refractory to conventional treatment. Despite increasing use of PC-ECMO, limited evidence is available regarding its safety, efficacy, and optimal timing for initiation and weaning. The decision to use PC-ECMO often is made in the absence of robust clinical data, leading to variability in patient selection, management, and outcomes across different institutions. This article summarizes current evidence on ECMO use in postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock and discusses its potential benefits, management, complications, and outcomes.
