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

Neurological complications are common after liver transplantation (LT) and they are associated with a significant morbidity. Long-term effects of LT on cognitive and psychological outcomes are not clear. The objective of this study was to summarize the present knowledge on the neurological and cognitive complications of LT, resulting from a systematic review of the literature in the last 10 years. Several studies have investigated the incidence and the pathophysiology of neurological complications; in contrast, the knowledge of cognitive and psychological status after LT is poor. Currently, the effect of LT on mental performance is debated. Some studies have shown an improvement of cognitive function after OLTX and, at the same time, a persistence of different cognitive deficits. In addition, the quality of life (QoL) and the psychological status after LT seem to improve but LT recipients have significant deficiencies in most QoL domains. Consequently, future studies are necessary in order to investigate cognitive alterations and QoL in LT recipients.
