A systematic review of auxiliary liver transplantation of small-for-size grafts in patients with chronic liver disease.

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
Background & Aims: The shortage of liver grafts continues to worsen. Because the expanded use of small-for-size grafts (SFSGs) would substantially alleviate this shortage, we aimed to analyse the available knowledge on auxiliary liver transplantation (ALT) with SFSGs in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD) to identify opportunities to develop ALT with SFSGs in patients with CLD. Methods: This is a systematic review on ALT using SFSGs in patients with CLD. The review was completed by updates obtained from the authors of the retained reports. Results: Heterotopic ALT was performed in 26 cases between 1980 and 2017, none for SFGS Conclusions: Despite high postoperative morbidity, and highly reported technical variability, the APOLT technique is a promising technique to use SFSGs in patients with CLD, achieving satisfactory long-term results. The results need to be confirmed on a larger scale, and a standardised technique could lead to even better results. Lay summary: At the cost of a high postoperative morbidity, the long-term results of APOLT for small-for-size grafts are good. Standardisation of the procedure and of portal modulation remain needed.
