Long-term outcomes of laparoscopic versus open liver resection for intrahepatic combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma with propensity score matching.
Article in Annals of gastroenterological surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA) is a rare primary hepatic neoplasm. Currently, there are no well-structured studies that analyze the feasibility of laparoscopic liver resection in cHCC-CCA alone. This retrospective cohort study aimed to compare the long-term survival of laparoscopic liver resection with open liver resection in cHCC-CCA. Methods: Patients with a postoperative pathologic report of cHCC-CCA who underwent liver resection from August 2004 to December 2017 were included in this study. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed to analyze the 3-y disease-free survival and 3-y overall survival. Propensity score matching was done to reduce the influence of confounding variables. Results: A total of 145 patients were pathologically confirmed to have cHCC-CCA, of which 10 patients were excluded due to having received palliative surgery. Of the remaining 135 patients, 43 underwent laparoscopic and 92 underwent open liver resection; propensity score matching yielded 30 patients for each group. The 3-y overall survival was 38 (88.4%) in the laparoscopic group and 84 (91.3%) in the open group before propensity score matching ( Conclusion: Laparoscopic liver resection for cHCC-CCA is technically feasible and safe, having a shorter hospital stay without compromising oncological outcomes.
