Low Postoperative Platelet Counts Are Associated with Major Morbidity and Inferior Survival in Adult Recipients of Orthotopic Liver Transplantation.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundPlatelets (PLT) play an essential functional role in cellular injury and liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy and orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Here, we investigated the association of postoperative PLT counts with short- and long-term outcomes in adult OLT recipients.
methodsThree hundred consecutive patients from our prospective OLT database were analyzed retrospectively (May 2010-November 2017). Ninety-day post-OLT complications were graded using the Clavien-Dindo (CD) classification and quantified by the comprehensive complication index (CCI). To determine the prognostic accuracy of PLT counts, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was calculated for major complications (CD ≥ 3b). Parametric and non-parametric tests were applied for subgroup analyses. Uni- and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for major complications. Graft and patient survival were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method as well as uni- and multivariable Cox regression analyses.
resultsPostoperative day 6 PLT counts < 70 × 10
conclusionIn OLT patients, a PLT count on POD6 of less than 70 × 10
