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

We herein report an effective procedure for liver transplantation (LT) for severe cirrhotic patients with hemophilia. Three hemophilic patients suffering from liver cirrhosis due to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection underwent deceased donor LT in our institute. Basic clotting parameters were measured and evaluated during LT to determine the optimal packing procedure. All patients were treated with a gauze packing procedure to ensure stable hemostasis in relation to hemophilia during the peri-transplant period. The graft function of all patients recovered well upon gauze removal (depacking) procedure and the patients were finally discharged to home. The administration of clotting factor was discontinued on day 3 after deceased donor LT. No infectious complications occurred in any of the 3 patients. This technique could be an option for achieving successful LT in these patients. Cooperation between transplant surgeons and anesthesiologists can make this challenging operation possible.
