Case Report: Surgery combined with extracorporeal membraneoxygenation for acute type A aortic dissection complicated with acute myocardial infarction.

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: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the most serious complications of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) and markedly increases patient mortality. Simultaneous treatment strategies remain controversial. How to improve the treatment of these patients remains a critical challenge for cardiovascular surgeons. Case presentation: All three patients who experienced chest pain were admitted to emergency department of our hospital. The 12-lead electrocardiogram revealed ST-segment depression, myocardial enzyme levels were significantly elevated. Emergency physicians diagnosed ATAAD with AMI, and emergency surgery was planned in collaboration with the cardiovascular surgery team. One-stage surgery for coronary revascularization and central aortic repair were performed, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was implanted, ECMO was discontinued when hemodynamics stabilized. The patient ultimately recovered well and was discharged. Conclusion: For ATAAD combined with right ventricular AMI, one-stage surgery for coronary revascularization and central aortic repair, supported by ECMO as bridge, can be life-saving treatment strategy, the prognosis for all three patients was excellent.
