1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAdvanced heart failure and transplant (AHFTC) teams are crucial in the management of patients in cardiogenic shock. We sought to explore the impact of AHFTC physicians on outcomes in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support.

aimTo determine whether outcomes differ in the care of ECMO patients when AHFTC physicians serve in a primary

methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of 51 patients placed on veno-venous (VV) and veno-arterial (VA) ECMO between January 2015 and February 2023 at our institution. We compared ECMO outcomes between teams managed primarily by intensivists

resultsFor combined VA and VV ECMO patients, survival to 30 days post discharge in the AHFTC cohort was significantly higher (67%

conclusionThis study suggests that patients in shock requiring VA ECMO support may have improved survival 30 days after hospital discharge when an AHFTC team serves in a direct role in the selection and management of patients. Further studies are needed to validate this impact.
