Pediatric liver transplantation outcomes from a single center in Thailand.
Article in World journal of hepatology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundLiver transplantation (LT) has become an acceptable curative method for children with several liver diseases, especially irreversible acute liver failure and chronic liver diseases. King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital is one of Thailand's largest liver transplant centers and is responsible for many pediatric cases.
aimTo report the experience with pediatric LT and evaluate outcomes of living-related
methodsThis evaluation included children who underwent LT between August 2004 and November 2019. Data were retrospectively reviewed, including demographics, diagnoses, laboratory values of donors and recipients, the pediatric end-stage liver disease (PELD) or model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score, graft source, wait time, perioperative course, postoperative complications, and survival rates. Continuous data were reported using the median and interquartile range. The Mann-Whitney
resultsNinety-four operated pediatric liver transplant patients were identified (54% were females). The median age at transplantation was 1.2 (0.8-3.8) years. The median PELD and MELD scores were 20 (13-26.8) and 19.5 (15.8-26.3), respectively. Most grafts (81.9%) were obtained from living-related donors. The median wait time for the living donors was significantly shorter compared with the deceased donors at 1.6 (0.3-3.1) mo
conclusionA significant number of pediatric LT cases were reported in Thailand. Based on relatively comparable outcomes, ABO-incompatible and HBc antibody-positive grafts may be considered in an organ shortage situation.
