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

Liver transplantation (LT) remains a lifesaving therapy for patients with end-stage liver disease, but the shortage of graft donor (deceased donor) limits development of LT. Living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is the only alternative to deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT), but LDLT requires more sophisticated surgical techniques. In addition, LDLT does not have the advantage in their survival in response to immunosuppressive therapies. In this paper, we reviewed recent development of LDLT in China mainland, especially surgical technique and immune therapy.
