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 patient was a 61-year-old woman with a history of diabetes mellitus who had undergone ileocecal resection for ascending colon carcinoma 5 years earlier, followed by a postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with XELOX (capecitabine + oxaliplatin). During follow-up, the liver gradually atrophied, and radiological imaging showed suspicious findings of 20 × 14 mm hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the right lobe of the liver. The patient also underwent endoscopic variceal ligation for the esophageal varices. She was referred to our hospital for living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) due to decompensated liver cirrhosis with HCC. The patient did not have hepatitis B or C, and history of alcohol, suggesting that her liver cirrhosis was caused by a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. The Child-Pugh score was 10 points (class C) and the Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score was 8 points. The possibility of HCC could not be ruled out, and LDLT was performed. Postoperative pathological examination revealed idiopathic portal hypertension (IPH), and the mass lesion was diagnosed as focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH). The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 14. This is the first case of liver transplantation for IPH with FNH.
