Hepatectomy and liver regeneration in the results of treatment of colorectal liver metastasis.

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
introductionHepatectomy is currently the most reliable treatment modality for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). This paper describes and discusses the outcomes of initial versus repeat hepatic resection for CRLM. MATERIAL AND
methodsBetween January 2008 and December 2018, we retrospectively analyzed the data of 385 patients who underwent initial and repeat hepatic resection for CRLM at a single institution with respect to surgical outcomes and remnant liver regeneration. The remnant liver volume was postoperatively measured via computed tomography on postoperative day 7 and at 1, 2, 5, 12, and 24 months postoperatively.
resultsThe liver regeneration rate peaked at 1 week postoperatively, and gradually decreased thereafter. Remnant liver volume plateaued around 1-2 months postoperatively, when regeneration was almost complete. There was no difference in the rate of liver volume regeneration during the entire postoperative period between initial and repeat hepatic resection (
conclusionsInitial and repeat hepatectomy showed similar outcomes of remnant liver regeneration and short- and long-term prognoses.
