Massive Polycystic Liver with a Poor Performance Status Successfully Treated by ABO-incompatible Adult Living-donor Liver Transplantation While Overcoming Complications.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2022. 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
We encountered a 47-year-old woman with polycystic liver disease (PLD) and severe malnutrition successfully treated by living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Her PLD became symptomatic with abdominal distension and appetite loss. Transcatheter arterial embolization and percutaneous cyst drainage failed to improve her symptoms. ABO-incompatible LDLT from her husband was performed after rituximab administration and mycophenolate mofetil introduction. Although she showed severe postoperative complications, she ultimately regained the ability to walk and was discharged. Because advanced PLD cases are difficult to treat conservatively or with surgery, like fenestration and hepatectomy, liver transplantation should be considered before it becomes too late.
