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

backgroundTrisectionectomy is a treatment option in extensive liver malignancy, including colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). However, the reported experience of this procedure is limited. Therefore, we present our experience with right hepatic trisectionectomy (RHT) for CRLM as an example and discuss the changing role of trisectionectomy in the context of modern treatment alternatives based on a literature review.

methodsBetween January 1993 and December 2014 all patients undergoing RHT at a single center in the UK for CRLM were included. Patient and tumor characteristics were reviewed and a multivariate analysis was done. Based on a literature review the role of trisectionectomy in the treatment of HPB malignancies was discussed.

resultsA total of 211 patients undergoing RHT were included. Overall perioperative morbidity was 40.3%. Overall 90-day mortality was 7.6% but reduced to 2.8% over time. Multivariate analysis identified additional organ resection (

conclusionWith the further development of surgical and multimodal treatment strategies in CRLM the indications for trisectionectomy are decreasing. Having being formerly associated with high rates of perioperative morbidity and mortality, this single-center experience clearly shows that these concomitant risks decrease with experience, liberal use of portal vein embolization and improved patient selection. Trisectionectomy remains relevant in selected patients.
