Remote Ischemic Preconditioning in a Cirrhotic Patient Undergoing Major Hepatectomy.
Article in Cureus, 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
Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) has been shown to reduce ischemic reperfusion injury for patients undergoing hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastasis. We present a case of a 69-year-old male who underwent right hepatectomy for a multifocal hepatocellular carcinoma of the right liver and concomitant liver cirrhosis (Child-Pugh stage A). We performed portal vein embolization prior to surgery and intraoperative RIPC of the iliac vessels. The postoperative course after major hepatectomy went uneventful.
