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

backgroundDiagnostic tests for early allograft dysfunction (EAD) after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) vary widely. We aimed to evaluate the predictive value of rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM)-derived parameters in EAD. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 121 patients were reviewed. The definition of EAD proposed by Olthoff et al. included the presence of any of the following at postoperative day 7: bilirubin level ≥ 10 mg/dL, INR ≥ 1.6, or serum AST or ALT levels > 2000 IU/L. All patients underwent ROTEM assay, which consisted of an extrinsically activated thromboelastometric test (EXTEM) before and 24 h after LDLT.

resultsThe 1-year/2-year OS were 68.%8/64.5% and 94.4%/90.8% for the EAD and non-EAD groups, respectively (

conclusionWe conclude that CT and MCF on EXTEM were independent predictors of EAD. The 24 h post-LDLT ROTEM can be used with conventional laboratory tests to diagnose EAD. It increases the effectiveness of predicting OS.
