The safety of hepatectomy after transarterial radioembolization: Single institution experience and review of the literature.
Review in Journal of surgical oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesThe liver is a frequent site of malignancy, both primary and metastatic. The treatment goal of patients with liver cancer may include transarterial radioembolization (TARE). There are limited reports on the safety of hepatectomy following TARE. Our study's purpose is to review patients who have received TARE followed by hepatectomy.
methodsA retrospective study was performed on patients diagnosed with any liver cancer from 2013 to 2019 who underwent TARE followed by hepatectomy. Postoperative complications were prospectively collected. Descriptive statistics and the Kaplan-Meier test were used to assess survival outcomes.
resultsTwelve patients were treated with a TARE followed by a hepatectomy (nine with ≥4 segments resected). Diagnoses included: six HCC, four cholangiocarcinoma, one metastatic neuroendocrine tumor, and one metastatic colorectal cancer. There were no 90-day post-hepatectomy mortalities and the overall morbidity was 66% (16% severe ≥MAGS 3). Hepatectomy-specific complications after hepatectomy included two (16%) bile leaks and no post-hepatectomy liver failures. The median recurrence free survival was 26 months. Overall survival at 1-year was 78% and at 3 years was 47%.
conclusionsOur results support the safety of hepatectomy in select patients after TARE. Additional comparison to patients who receive hepatectomy as a first-line treatment for liver cancers should be investigated.
