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

Objective: This study aimed to characterize the 5-day trajectory of nutritional and metabolic profiles and identify influencing factors in adults receiving VA-ECMO support. Methods: A total of 46 patients with cardiogenic shock receiving VA-ECMO (2022-2024; median age 50 [IQR: 41.0-63.3]) were prospectively enrolled. Demographic, clinical, nutritional, and metabolic biomarkers were serially collected over 5 days. Multivariate analysis was employed to evaluate longitudinal trends and determinants of change. Results: Significant dynamic changes were observed in nutritional and metabolic parameters, including serum albumin, neutrophil count, prognostic nutrition index (PNI), triceps skinfold thickness, and mid-upper arm circumference. A marked decline in albumin occurred within the first 48 h (mean differences: -5.663, Conclusions: ECMO support is associated with early changes in nutritional status. Rapid albumin decline within 48 h and later anthropometric reductions suggest a need for prompt nutritional monitoring and individualized intervention, though further validation is warranted. Implications for Clinical Practice: These findings highlight the critical importance of integrated nutritional and metabolic management initiated early during VA-ECMO support to improve patient outcomes.
