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
Introduction: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a rescue method in the treatment of severe cardiac and/or respiratory failure in patients with different etiological factors of this failure and also of different ages. The question of ECMO support of patients has arisen more frequently recently, as a result of the expansion of the indication criteria for this support and the increase in the contingent of patients with severe cardiac and/or respiratory failure. Material and methods: A retrospective study was performed in patients with veno-arterial ECMO (VA-ECMO) support for cardiac or cardiorespiratory failure over a 10-year period at a single ECMO center. In this study, comorbidities and peri- and post-procedural complications were analyzed in search of predictors of failure of the method. Furthermore, the composition of treated patients was analyzed according to the indication for support and known comorbidities at the time the support was indicated. Results: The largest indication group among patients supported by VA-ECMO was those with acute coronary syndrome ( Conclusions: Analysis of the results shows a correlation of survival with the incidence of infection at the cannulation site and limb ischemia. Survival at 30 days correlated with multiorgan dysfunction syndrome, cerebral edema and cannulation site infection. Survival at 90 days correlated with cannulation site infection. Survival at 12 months correlated with limb ischemia and cannulation site infection. Of the comorbidities known at the time of indication, only atrial fibrillation was correlated with 12-month survival and hospitalization mortality (significance level
