Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
Patients supported with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) often receive renal replacement therapy (RRT). We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis (between January 2000 and September 2020) to assess outcomes in patients who received RRT on ECMO. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed using R 3.6.1 and certainty of evidence was rated using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. The primary outcome was pooled mortality. The duration of ECMO support and ICU/hospital lengths of stay were also investigated. Meta-regression analyses identified factors associated with mortality. A total of 5896 adult patients (from 24 observational studies and 1 randomised controlled trial) were included in this review. Overall pooled mortality due to concurrent use of RRT while on ECMO from observational studies was 63.0% (95% CI: 56.0–69.6%). In patients receiving RRT, mortality decreased by 20% in the last five years; the mean duration of ECMO support and ICU and hospital lengths of stay were 9.33 days (95% CI: 7.74–10.92), 15.76 days (95% CI: 12.83–18.69) and 28.47 days (95% CI: 22.13–34.81), respectively, with an 81% increased risk of death (RR: 1.81, 95% CI: 1.56–2.08, p < 0.001). RRT on ECMO was associated with higher mortality rates and a longer ICU/hospital stay compared to those without RRT. Future research should focus on minimizing renal dysfunction in ECMO patients and define the optimal timing of RRT initiation.
