Morbidity and mortality of iatrogenic hemothorax occurring in a cohort of liver transplantation recipients: a multicenter observational study.
Observational study in Updates in surgery, 2021. 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
Hemothorax (HT) is a life-threatening condition, mainly iatrogenic and poorly explored in Liver Transplantation (LT) recipients. The aim of this study is to report and analyze for the first time incidence and outcomes of HT in LT recipients, as well as to suggest a management strategy. Data concerning 7130 consecutive adult liver and liver-kidney transplant recipients were retrospectively collected from ten Transplantation Centers' institutional databases, over a 10-year period. Clinical parameters, management strategies and survival data about post-operative HT were analyzed and reported. Thirty patients developed HT during hospitalization (0.42%). Thoracentesis was found to be the most common cause of HT (16 patients). A non-surgical management was performed in 17 patients, while 13 patients underwent surgery. 19 patients developed thoracic complications after HT treatment, with an overall mortality rate of 50%. The median length of stay in Intensive Care Units was 22 days (IQR
