Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Septic Shock in Adults and Children: A Narrative Review.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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
Refractory septic shock is associated with a high risk of death. Circulatory support in the form of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) may function as a bridge to recovery, allowing for the treatment of the source of the sepsis. Whilst VA ECMO has been accepted as the means of hemodynamic support for children, in adults, single center observational studies show survival rates of only 70-90% for hypodynamic septic shock. The use of VA ECMO for circulatory support in hyperdynamic septic shock with preserved cardiac output or when applied late during cardio-pulmonary resuscitation is not recommended. With unresolving septic shock and a loss of ventriculo-arterial coupling, stress cardiomyopathy often develops. If the cardiac index (CI) approaches subnormal levels (CI < 2.5 L/min m
