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

Biliary complications cause significant morbidity and mortality in liver transplantation. Warm ischemia can induce biliary duct injury. This study aimed to investigate the effects of warm ischemia on the peribiliary vascular plexus in rat liver transplantation. A total of 102 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: sham-operation group, non-ischemic group, and ischemic group. Liver transplantation was performed in both the non-ischemic group and the ischemic group. The animals were sacrificed on day 1, 3, 7, and 14 to collect the blood and liver samples. Serum levels of bile duct obstruction, viz, alkaline phosphatase and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, as well as direct and indirect bilirubin were measured. Liver biopsy samples were examined with hematoxylin-eosin staining and transmission electron microscopy. The levels of enzymes and bilirubin were significantly higher in the ischemic group than the non-ischemic group and sham-operated animals (P<0.05), with return to normal levels in the ischemic group after two weeks. Morphological examination showed microthrombi and endothelial damage in the bile ducts and the peribiliary vascular plexus of the ischemic group. Warm ischemia/reperfusion injury can damage the endothelium of the peribiliary vascular plexus, which might compromise the bile duct microcirculation and lead to ischemic cholangiopathy after liver transplantation.
