The efficacy of intraoperative indocyanine green fluorescence angiography in gastric cancer operation after living donor liver transplantation: A case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionThe incidence of de novo malignancies after organ transplantation is increasing. We herein report a patient who developed gastric cancer after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) and splenectomy. Intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence angiography immediately after gastrectomy was useful for evaluating the blood supply into the remnant stomach in this patient. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 69-year-old woman underwent LDLT and splenectomy for end-stage liver disease. Gastric cancer was found by an endoscopic examination eight years after LDLT. Although total gastrectomy was considered due to previous splenectomy, we decided to intraoperatively evaluate the flow of the remnant stomach using ICG fluorescence. After ligation of the left gastric artery and transection of the stomach with a sufficient proximal margin from the tumor, intraoperative ICG fluorescence angiography showed abundant intramural blood flow of the remnant stomach. We were able to preserve the proximal stomach with confidence and she recovered smoothly after the operation without any signs of acute rejection.
conclusionIntraoperative ICG fluorescence angiography may be helpful for evaluating the blood flow in the remnant stomach during surgery for de novo gastric cancer after LDLT.
