Sex Differences in Patients With Cardiogenic Shock Receiving Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation.
Article in Korean circulation journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02985008 (SMart Angioplasty Research Team), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesLimited data are available on sex differences in clinical outcomes of patients with profound cardiogenic shock (CS) receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). Therefore, our study sought to compare clinical pictures and outcomes between male and female patients treated with VA-ECMO.
methodsA total of 1,328 patients receiving VA-ECMO were selected from either the Samsung Medical Center or a multicenter CS registry named the SMART RESCUE study. The study population was divided into men (n=903) and women (n=425). The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, and the secondary outcome was procedure-related complications, which included limb ischemia, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) site bleeding and infection, and wound dehiscence.
resultsThere was no significant difference in in-hospital mortality (men vs. women, 46.4% vs. 45.6%; adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.78; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.58-1.05; p=0.106) based on multivariable analysis. Women showed higher rates of procedure-related complication than men (18.7% vs. 25.9%; adjusted OR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.29-2.57; p=0.001) mainly driven by higher incidence of limb ischemia (7.1% vs. 12.9%; adjusted OR, 2.32; 95% CI, 1.42-3.78; p=0.001) On multivariable logistic regression analysis, female sex was an independent predictor of procedure-related complications (adjusted OR, 1.68; 95% CI, 1.13-2.49; p=0.009).
conclusionsAlthough no significant difference in either in-hospital or mid-term mortality was found between men and women, female sex is an independent factor for ECMO-related complications.
