Anatomic isolated caudate lobectomy: Is it possible to establish a standard surgical flow?
Observational study in World journal of gastroenterology, 2017. 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
aimTo establish the surgical flow for anatomic isolated caudate lobe resection.
methodsThe study was approved by the ethics committee of the Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine (SAHZU). From April 2004 to July 2014, 20 patients were enrolled who underwent anatomic isolated caudate lobectomy at SAHZU. Clinical and postoperative pathological data were analyzed.
resultsOf the total 20 cases, 4 received isolated complete caudate lobectomy (20%) and 16 received isolated partial caudate lobectomy (80%). There were 4 cases with the left approach (4/20, 20%), 6 cases with the right approach (6/20, 30%), 7 cases with the bilateral combined approach (7/20, 35%), 3 cases with the anterior approach (3/20, 15%), and the hanging maneuver was also combined in 2 cases. The median tumor size was 5.5 cm (2-12 cm). The median intra-operative blood loss was 600 mL (200-5700 mL). The median intra-operative blood transfusion volume was 250 mL (0-2400 mL). The median operation time was 255 min (110-510 min). The median post-operative hospital stay was 14 d (7-30 d). The 1- and 3-year survival rates for malignant tumor were 88.9% and 49.4%, respectively.
conclusionCaudate lobectomy was a challenging procedure. It was demonstrated that anatomic isolated caudate lobectomy can be done safely and effectively.
