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

The management of liver trauma is, currently, still heterogeneous ranging from conservative to major invasive liver resections. When appropriate, these cases should be referred to a regional care center. The objective of this study was to analyze the expertise of a non-emergency center for liver surgery from Romania after initial stabilization in county hospitals. This study is a monocentric, retrospective, observational study, including 12 patients with hepatic trauma after a car accident, admitted between 2015 and 2019. We analyzed various clinical and biochemical data as independent variables, and the main outcome was considered the intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay. Our results revealed that intubation status at admission, norepinephrine infusion during surgery, hyperfibrinogenemia and duration of mechanical ventilation in patients with isolated liver trauma were correlated with prolonged ICU length of stay. Further prospective, more comprehensive studies are needed in order to evaluate the exact prognostic factors in terms of short- and long-term mortality.
