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
Introduction: Pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) management presents unique challenges in acute care settings, requiring specialized expertise to manage critically ill children. Medical and surgical fellows often manage these patients, but prior residency training rarely provides sufficient ECMO exposure. We developed and evaluated a multimodal pediatric ECMO boot camp for new fellows. Methods: This boot camp was implemented during 5-hour sessions in August 2021, August 2022, and August 2023. The curriculum included a 45-minute introductory didactics session, 30-minute hands-on circuit demonstration, and four 30-minute small-group activity stations. To assess knowledge acquisition, pre- and posttests were administered; participants also completed a post-boot camp survey to evaluate their confidence and provide feedback. Results: Forty-nine participants completed the boot camp, including 18 critical care, four cardiology, 11 pediatric surgery, 12 cardiothoracic surgery, and four pediatric emergency medicine fellows. Pre- and posttests demonstrated significant improvement in knowledge of ECMO circuit components and pressures (56% vs. 76%, Discussion: Our results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of establishing a pediatric ECMO boot camp to train new surgical and medical fellows. The curriculum not only improved ECMO knowledge but also boosted learners' confidence in managing ECMO-related challenges.
