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

Two "surgeons-anatomists" Rapp in Montpellier and Couinaud in Paris at the same period (1953) given precise anatomy useful for the hepatic surgery and to the tremendous upheavals of radiological investigations. Actually, the fundamental anatomy of liver is classic with 8 segments with autonomous territories having a vascular afferent pedicle and a venous and biliary efferent drainage. These autonomous territories supported the surgical approach of the liver with the possibility of resecting a hepatic territory in a carcinological perspective well saving quite vascularized parenchyma. It will be in the future history about liver morphology to specify the contribution of these two "surgeons-anatomists". Actually it will be possible to look in the "Conservatory of Anatomy" in Montpellier these original livers corrosions.
