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

backgroundExtensive, bilobular and multifocal colorectal liver metastases (CLM) or metastases that are critically situated require an experienced surgeon and advanced surgical techniques to enable curative resection.

objectiveThis article describes the toolbox of hepato-oncologic surgery including functional augmentation of liver segments by portal vein embolization/ligation, combinations of ablation and resection, two-stage resections and in situ split liver resection, also known as associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS). Furthermore, the curative resection of extrahepatic, oligometastatic disease are briefly discussed. MATERIAL AND

methodsReview of current literature as well as discussion of the ALPPS procedure, which was developed at our institute.

resultsIn recent years, oncologic resections for CLM have been significantly refined, leading to a constant increase of curative resection rates.

conclusionIn a multimodality treatment setting, surgical resection of CLM remains the gold standard curative approach and even in the event of presumed hopeless cases with extensive metastasis, experienced hepatobiliary surgeons must evaluate the resectability of colorectal metastases.
