The role of associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy in the management of patients with colorectal liver metastasis.
Review in Hepatobiliary surgery and nutrition, 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
Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) approach emerged as a promising surgical strategy for rapid and large hypertrophy of the future liver remnant (FLR) when a major liver resection is necessary. Colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) is their main indication. However, the promising results published so far, are very difficult to interpret since they usually focus on the technique and not on the underlying disease. Moreover, they are usually made up of complex populations, which received different chemotherapy schemes, with the ALPPS technical variations implemented over time and without consistent long-term follow-up results as well. Whereby, its role in CRLM should be analyzed as carefully as possible to indicate and select the best candidates who will benefit the most from this approach. We conducted a computerized search using PubMed and Google Scholar for reports published so far, using mesh headings and keywords related to the ALPPS and CRLM.
