Hepatic vascular variations and visual three-dimensional reconstruction technique in pediatric patients with choledochal cyst.
Article in Surgical and radiologic anatomy : SRA, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeThe aim of the present study was to identify the hepatic vascular variations with visual three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of vessels in pediatric patients with choledochal cyst (CDC).
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data of 84 children with pathologically confirmed CDCs treated in the Children's Hospital of Soochow University. 180 patients without CDCs as a control to analysis the hepatic artery and portal vein anatomy. All patients were examined by multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) and the images of children with CDC were reconstructed by Hisense computer-assisted surgery system (Hisense CAS) to obtain visual 3D images.
resultsThere were 71 females and 13 males diagnosed with CDC. According to Todani classification of CDC, there were 42 cases of type Ia, 10 cases of type Ic and 32 cases of type IVa. There were 10 (11.9%) patients with hepatic artery variations, 14 (16.7%) patients with right hepatic artery located on the ventral side of the CDC, and 16 (19.0%) patients with portal vein variations. Sex, age and types of the cyst were not associated with the presence of vascular variations. There was no significant difference in hepatic vascular variation between CDCs and control groups. Visual 3D images clearly displayed the hepatic vascular variations and the spatial structure of the CDC in pediatric patients with CDC.
conclusionsHepatic artery and portal vein variations can be detected in pediatric patients with CDC. Visual 3D technique can visually and stereoscopically display the anatomical variations of the hepatic artery and portal vein.
