Case Report: Postoperative pulmonary embolism causing obstructive shock and circulatory collapse after gynecologic surgery: successful rescue with VA-ECMO.

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
Very-high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) occurring within hours after major surgery presents a therapeutic dilemma because urgent reperfusion may be required at precisely the time when bleeding risk is greatest. We describe a 45-year-old woman who developed catastrophic bilateral PE approximately two hours after elective gynecologic surgery consisting of myomectomy and ovarian endometriotic cyst excision. Shortly after surgery, she experienced abrupt respiratory failure, profound hypotension, and rapidly progressive circulatory collapse. On arrival at a tertiary intensive care unit, arterial blood gas analysis revealed severe respiratory acidosis (pH 7.019; PaCO
