[Small-for-size: experimental findings for liver surgery].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2012. 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
The characteristics of the hepatic macrocirculation, i.e., the parallel portal-venous and arterial blood supply, is of utmost relevance for liver surgery. With extended hepatectomy or transplantation of a reduced-size liver the remaining or transplanted liver tissue is overperfused because the liver fails to regulate the portal-venous inflow. This portal hyperperfusion is responsible for the initiation of liver cell proliferation but represents at the same time one of the substantial events in the pathogenesis of the small-for-size syndrome. Portal-venous hyperperfusion, the so-called hepatic arterial buffer response, which describes the semi-reciprocal relationship between the portal-venous and hepatic arterial blood flows, leads to an arterial hypoperfusion of the small-for-size liver. In this article experimental and clinical data are discussed which underline the high but so far overseen relevance of this arterial underperfusion in the development of a small-for-size syndrome.
