Prognosis After Seven Days of Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Support.

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
backgroundPrognostication in patients receiving veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) remains challenging, particularly during prolonged support. Accurate prognostic indicators are essential for patients, caregivers, and clinicians. This study evaluates outcomes in patients supported with V-V ECMO for at least seven days.
methodsWe conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study of patients cannulated for V-V ECMO due to respiratory failure. The primary endpoint was hospital survival. The subgroup of patients still on V-V ECMO on day 7, stratified by respirator and ECMO parameters, was analyzed with respect to predictors of the primary outcome. A survival favorability margin was defined as the bound of the hospital survivors' 95% confidence interval closest to the non-survivor median.
resultsAmong 299 patients treated with V-V ECMO (median age 55 years, 66.9% male), hospital survival was 44.8%. Pneumonia was the primary cause of respiratory failure in 216 patients (72.2%). By day 7, 182/299 patients (60.9%) remained on V-V ECMO, with a hospital survival rate of 45.1%. Three respiratory parameters (ventilator FiO
conclusionAmong patients still on V-V ECMO on day seven, respiratory and ECMO parameters above the favorability margin correlated strongly with hospital survival. Survival was rare in patients with all predictors below the favorability margin. Day seven could provide a useful, though not definitive, time point for prognostication based on respiratory and ECMO parameters.
