Relationship between hepatic venous anatomy and hepatic venous blood loss during hepatectomy.
Article in Surgery today, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposePredicting increased blood loss based on anatomical intervascular relationships is essential in major hepatectomy.
methodsWe assessed 63 consecutive patients undergoing anatomical hepatectomy exposing the hepatic vein (HV) trunk at two institutes. Correlations between anatomical alterations of the hepatic inferior vena cava (IVC), HV, hepatic IVC, or right atrium (RA) and the blood loss per standard weight (BLSW) or blood transfusion (n = 18) were analyzed. The results of IVC partial clamping (PC) were additionally examined.
resultsThe BLSW in type V-up anatomical morphology was significantly higher than that in straight type (p < 0.05). The parameters associated with an increased BLSW (> 13.5 mL/kg) were tumor size (> 4 cm), prothrombin activity (< 87%), CVP (> 7 mmHg), area of suprahepatic IVC (< 360 mm
conclusionThe IVC-RA gap might be a promising novel predictive parameter reflecting increased blood loss leading to blood transfusion in anatomical hepatectomy.
