Portocaval shunt can optimize transhepatic flow following extended hepatectomy: a short-term study in a porcine model.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the portocaval shunt (PCS) corrects these unwanted changes in transhepatic flow after extended hepatectomy (EH). Forty female Landrace pigs were divided into two main groups: (A) EH (75%) and (B) no EH. Group A was divided into 3 subgroups: (A1) EH without PCS; (A2) EH with side-to-side PCS; and (A3) EH with end-to-side PCS. Group B was divided into 2 subgroups: (B1) side-to-side PCS and (B2) end-to-side PCS. HAF, PVF, and PVP were measured in each animal before and after the surgical procedure. EH increased the PVF/100 g (173%, p < 0.001) and PVP (68%, p < 0.001) but reduced the HAF/100 g (22%, p = 0.819). Following EH, side-to-side PCS reduced the increased PVF (78%, p < 0.001) and PVP (38%, p = 0.001). Without EH, side-to-side PCS reduced the PVF/100 g (68%, p < 0.001) and PVP (12%, p = 0.237). PVP was reduced by end-to-side PCS following EH by 48% (p < 0.001) and without EH by 21% (p = 0.075). PCS can decrease and correct the elevated PVP and PVF/100 g after EH to close to the normal values prior to resection. The decreased HAF/100 g in the remnant liver following EH is increased and corrected through PCS.
