Characteristics of the top 100 cited original studies on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: a bibliometric analysis.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been widely used as a life support for different kinds of acute cardiopulmonary dysfunction. The present study aimed at presenting the global trend of the top 100 cited original studies related to ECMO. Methods: Bibliometric analysis was the primary methodology for this study. Literature data were collected from Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). Indicators were analyzed and visualized by Excel and VOSviewer, the study design, study population, study topic, journal impact factor (IF), Category Rank and Category Quartile, author, country, journal and keywords were included. Results: The top 100 cited articles were published between 1979 and 2021. With 19 publications, 2020 was the most prolific year. High-income countries or regions, such as the United States of America (USA), France and Canada owned a majority of the articles. Seventeen studies were randomized trials, 52 were finished in single center, and 53 focused on adults. The 100 articles were documented by 31 different journals. The journals were well recognized, with a mean IF Conclusions: This bibliometric analysis identified 100 most frequently cited original studies on ECMO and described their characteristics, which may help with further investigations.
