Post-hepatectomy liver failure: Should we consider venous outflow?
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionPost-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is one of the most serious complications of liver resection and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We report a case of PHLF involving clinical presentation of posthepatectomy-related 'small-for-size' syndrome (SFSS) secondary to obstructed venous outflow in the liver remnant, following extended right hepatectomy. DISCUSSION: PHLF is similar to SFSS in liver transplantation (LT) in terms of pathogenesis, clinical presentation and outcomes. Although inflow hypertension is clearly implicated in the pathogenesis of SFSS some authors have suggested that outflow obstruction is a potential pathogenic factor.
conclusionThe present case support the hypothesis that outflow obstruction could lead symptoms similar to SFSS.
