Review in European journal of clinical pharmacology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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

backgroundExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a vital technique for severe respiratory or heart failure patients. Bleeding and thrombotic events are common during ECMO and negatively impact patient outcomes. Unfractionated heparin is the primary anticoagulant, but its adverse effects limit its use, necessitating alternative anticoagulants.

objectiveReview available alternative anticoagulants for adult ECMO patients. Explore potential novel anticoagulants for future ECMO use. Aim to reduce complications (bleeding and thrombosis) and improve safety and efficacy for critically ill ECMO patients.

methodsComprehensive literature review of existing and emerging anticoagulants for ECMO.

resultsIdentified a range of alternative anticoagulants beyond unfractionated heparin. Evaluated their potential utility in mitigating ECMO-related complications.

conclusionDiverse anticoagulant options are available and under investigation for ECMO. These alternatives may enhance patient safety and outcomes during ECMO support. Further research and clinical studies are warranted to determine their effectiveness and safety profiles.
