Immediate inflammatory response to mechanical circulatory support in a porcine model of severe cardiogenic shock.

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
backgroundIn selected cases of cardiogenic shock, veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) is combined with trans valvular micro axial flow pumps (ECMELLA). Observational studies indicate that ECMELLA may reduce mortality but exposing the patient to two advanced mechanical support devices may affect the early inflammatory response. We aimed to explore inflammatory biomarkers in a porcine cardiogenic shock model managed with V-A ECMO or ECMELLA.
methodsFourteen landrace pigs had acute myocardial infarction-induced cardiogenic shock with minimal arterial pulsatility by microsphere embolization and were afterwards managed 1:1 with either V-A ECMO or ECMELLA for 4 h. Serial blood samples were drawn hourly and analyzed for serum concentrations of interleukin 6 (IL-6), IL-8, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and serum amyloid A (SAA).
resultsAn increase in IL-6, IL-8, and SAA levels was observed during the experiment for both groups. At 2-4 h of support, IL-6 levels were higher in ECMELLA compared to V-A ECMO animals (difference: 1416 pg/ml, 1278 pg/ml, and 1030 pg/ml). SAA levels were higher in ECMELLA animals after 3 and 4 h of support (difference: 401 ng/ml and 524 ng/ml) and a significant treatment-by-time effect of ECMELLA on SAA was identified (p = 0.04). No statistical significant between-group differences were observed in carotid artery blood flow, urine output, and lactate levels.
conclusionsLeft ventricular unloading with Impella during V-A ECMO resulted in a more extensive inflammatory reaction despite similar end-organ perfusion.
