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

backgroundThe efficacy of infrahepatic inferior vena cava (IVC) semi-clamping for reducing blood loss during hepatic resection and its safety remain unclear. The aim of this study was to validate the effectiveness of IVC semi-clamping for reducing blood loss during hepatic resection and to confirm its safety.

methodsPatients who underwent anatomical hepatic resection between January 2011 and May 2018 were analysed by propensity score-matched and multivariate analyses.

resultsOf 437 patients who underwent anatomical hepatic resection, IVC semi-clamping was performed in 196 patients (44.9%; clamping group). A propensity score-matched analysis demonstrated that even though there was no significant difference in the characteristics of the 141 patients in each group, IVC semi-clamping reduced the blood loss during hepatic resection (clamping group versus non-clamping group: 836 ± 123 vs. 1198 ± 124 ml, P = 0.04). Regarding post-operative complications, the multivariate analysis identified IVC semi-clamping as an independent risk factor for acute kidney injury on post-operative day 1 (P = 0.01, odds ratio = 9.23). A significant positive correlation was found between the duration of IVC semi-clamping and an increased level of serum creatinine (sCre) (P = 0.03), and a significant inverse correlation was found between the blood pressure after clamping and an increased level of sCre (P = 0.02). A receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed the duration and mean blood pressure after clamping that indicated a high risk of acute kidney injury to be 116 min and 65 mmHg, respectively.

conclusionIVC semi-clamping can reduce blood loss during hepatic resection but still necessitates monitoring in order to avoid acute kidney injury.
