Retrograde laparoscopic resection of left side of the liver: a safe and effective way.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2016. 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
objectiveThe safety and feasibility of retrograde laparoscopic resection of the left side of the liver.
methodsNinety-three laparoscopic left hepatic lobe cases were selected between August 2010 and August 2014 from our institution. A retrospective cohort study was performed between the antegrade partial hepatectomy group (47 cases; dissection from the first porta hepatis to the second) and the retrograde partial hepatectomy group (46 cases; dissection from the second porta hepatis to the first), to compare the length of time needed for resection, the amount of bleeding, post-operative time in the hospital, and the incidence of major complications, such as bile leakage, abdominal abscess, and post-hepatectomy hemorrhage.
resultsAll of the cases had a successful laparoscopic partial hepatectomy without the need for an intraoperative blood transfusion. Patients were able to ambulate on post-operative day 1 and tolerated a liquid diet on post-operative day 1 or 2. There were no statistical differences of post-operative hospital length of stay or incidence of major complications between the two groups. Both duration of resection and the amount of bleeding were less in the retrograde group than of those in the antegrade group, due to the lower incidence of hepatic vein injury in the retrograde group.
conclusionOcclusion of both the inflow and outflow hepatic vessels combined with retrograde hepatectomy from the second porta hepatis to the first, demonstrated less hemorrhage and lower incidence of hepatic veins injury during laparoscopic partial hepatectomy.
