Intellectual development of patients with biliary atresia who underwent living donor liver transplantation in infancy.
Article in Pediatric surgery international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe impact of pediatric liver transplantation on intellectual development has yet to be determined. We investigated the intellectual outcomes of school-aged patients after living donor liver transplantation for biliary atresia in infancy.
methodsThe Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-fourth edition test was administered to 20 patients who survived [Formula: see text] 5 years after living donor liver transplantation. Borderline full scale intelligence quotient was defined as ≤ 85. Pre-, peri-, and postoperative data were compared between patients with > 85 and ≤ 85 to identify predictive factors of borderline performance.
resultsThe one-sample t test demonstrated that the mean full scale intelligence quotient of patients after transplantation for biliary atresia was significantly lower than that of the general population (91.8 vs. 100.0, p = 0.026) and 7 (35%) were classified as intellectual borderline functioning. Multivariable logistic regression models were unable to identify any factors predictive of full scale intelligence quotients of ≤ 85.
conclusionThis is the first study to indicate that the mean full scale intelligence quotient among school-aged patients who underwent living donor liver transplantation for biliary atresia in infancy is significantly lower than that of the general population.
