Post-transplant malignancies in alcoholic liver disease.
Review in Translational gastroenterology and hepatology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Post-transplant malignancy is emerging as an important cause of mortality in patients with cirrhosis undergoing liver transplant (LT). However, establishing the exact relationship between the two needs further evaluation. It has been observed that approximately 30% deaths after 10 years of hepatic transplantation occur due to de novo malignancies. Various known risk factors include immunosuppression, age of patient, alcoholic liver disease (ALD) or primary sclerosing cholangitis, smoking, and oncogenic viral infections. There is scanty literature on the post-transplant malignancy risk in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis. The current evidence suggests a particularly increased risk of oropharyngeal and lung cancers in patients transplanted for ALD. Abstinence from alcohol, smoking and other tobacco-containing products along with optimization of immunosuppression are paramount for decreasing the risk of post-transplant malignancies.
