Evaluation of Liver Function and the Role of Biliary Drainage before Major Hepatic Resections.
Review in Visceral medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundPrevention of posthepatectomy liver failure is a prerequisite for improving the postoperative outcome of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma. From this perspective, appropriate assessment of future liver remnant (FLR) function and the optimized preparation are mandatory. SUMMARY: FLR volume ratio using CT volumetry based on 3-dimensional vascular imaging is the current assessment yardstick and is sufficient for assessing a normal liver. However, in a liver with underling parenchymal disease such as fibrosis or prolonged jaundice, weighing up the degree of liver damage against the FLR volume ratio is necessary to know the real FLR function. For this purpose, the indocyanine green (ICG) clearance test, monoethylglycinexylidide (MEGX) test, liver maximum capacity (LiMAX) test, KEY MESSAGES: Appropriate selection of an assessment method is of prime importance to predict the FLR function according to the preoperative condition of the liver. Preoperative biliary drainage in patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma is gaining support due to the increasing safety and success rate, especially in patients who need optimization of their liver function before hepatectomy.
