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

backgroundWe aimed to develop a novel scoring system for risk stratification specific to living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) recipients, to improve the accuracy of predicting short-term outcomes.

methodsThe sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score at postoperative day 7 was collected and simplified by dichotomization, and these categories and other clinical factors were subjected to univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses to select independent risks in constructing a "graft-to-recipient weight ratio (GRWR)-SOFA" scoring system.

resultsWe enrolled 519 patients who underwent LDLT. The GRWR-SOFA score comprises a sum of six factors: cardiovascular (mean arterial pressure < 70 mmHg, scored 3), coagulation (serum platelet < 50 × 10

conclusionsThe GRWR-SOFA model demonstrates superior discriminatory power for predicting short-term mortality. It enables clinicians to identify the right level of care for distinct subgroups of patients receiving LDLT.
