Significance of liver hanging maneuver for anatomical hepatectomy in patients with a large hepatocellular carcinoma compressing intrahepatic vasculatures.

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
BACKGROUNDS/
aimsTo achieve complete anatomic hepatectomy in a large hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), hepatic transection through an anterior approach is required. Liver hanging maneuver (LHM) is a useful procedure for transection of an adequately cut plane in anatomical liver resection. It may reduce intraoperative bleeding and transection time.
methodsWe examined records of 27 patients with large HCC (over 10 cm in size) who underwent anatomic hepatic resection with LHM (n=11, between 2001 and 2007) or without LHM (n=16, between 2000 and 2003). The two groups were retrospectively compared in terms of patient demographics, preoperative hepatic function, surgical records, and post-hepatectomy outcome.
resultsAlthough transection time was not significantly different between the two groups, the amount of intraoperative blood loss was significantly lower in the LHM group than that in the non-LHM group (1,269±1,407 ml vs. 2,197±1,281 ml,
conclusionsLHM can reduce intraoperative blood loss. It is useful for transecting adequately cut plane in a hepatectomy for a large HCC. However, postoperative outcomes are not improved by LHM compared to those by non-LHM.
