Platelet and liver regeneration after liver surgery.
Review in Surgery today, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
The success of liver surgery, including resection and transplantation, is largely dependent on the ability of the liver to regenerate. Despite substantial improvement in surgical techniques and perioperative care, one of the main concerns is post-hepatectomy liver failure and early allograft dysfunction, both of which are associated with impaired liver regeneration. Recent studies have demonstrated the positive role of platelets in promoting liver regeneration and protecting hepatocytes; however, the underlying mechanisms responsible for these effects are not fully understood. In this review, we updated the accumulated evidence of the role of platelets in promoting liver regeneration, with a focus on liver resection and liver transplantation. The goal of these studies was to support the clinical implementation of platelet agents, such as thrombopoietin receptor agonists, to augment liver regeneration after liver surgery. This "platelet therapy" may become a treatment choice for post-hepatectomy liver failure and early allograft dysfunction.
