Efficacy and safety of laparoscopic hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma comorbid with cirrhosis.
Article in Przeglad gastroenterologiczny, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionLaparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) is very difficult to perform in patients with cirrhosis because of the haemorrhagic and fibrotic nature of the liver, although there are various advantages to laparoscopic surgery.
aimTo investigate the surgical outcomes, and efficacy and safety of LH versus open hepatectomy (OH) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) resection. MATERIAL AND
methodsA total of 112 patients with cirrhosis, who underwent hepatectomy, were analysed retrospectively. We investigated the safety and efficacy of LH for HCC with cirrhosis. Student's
resultsSeventy-one patients underwent LH, and 41 underwent OH. The conversion rate from LH to OH was 12.7%. After propensity score matching, the estimated blood loss was significantly lower in the LH group than in the OH group (25 vs. 310 ml;
conclusionsLH can be performed safely for HCC with cirrhosis. More favourable results are achieved with LH than with OH in terms of surgical outcomes.
