[Indications and operative procedures for neuroendocrine liver metastases].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Neuroendocrine malignancies encompass a variety of tumors that differ considerably in origin, hormonal activity, and biological behavior. Because of their rarity most therapeutic recommendations have been based on limited evidence from small retrospective series observing miscellaneous patient cohorts. Only in recent years proposals for TNM and histological grading systems have been elaborated that allow further stratification of patients suffering from these tumors. Especially patients with well and moderately differentiated neuroendocrine malignancies benefit from resection of liver metastases, improving the 5-year survival rate from <50% to 80%. Orthotopic liver transplantation can likewise improve survival in carefully selected patients. New developments in imaging modalities, intensive care treatment, and in liver surgery itself have broadened the selection of potentially resectable tumors.
