A "blood theft" after liver transplantation: the role of interventional radiology in the management and treatment of splenic artery steal syndrome.

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
Splenic artery steal syndrome is a rare complication after liver transplant. It could lead to rapidly evolving major issues such as ischemic cholangiopathy and acute graft failure. Although the pathophysiology is not yet well understood, if diagnosed in time it could be easily managed with interventional radiology treatments. We present a case of a 47-year-old man presented to our institute with radiological findings typical for multifocal hepatocellular carcinoma in a cirrhotic liver. After therapy he underwent transplant. Some days after surgery he developed signs of acute liver failure. Steal syndrome was suspected by laboratory tests and radiology exams. The syndrome was confirmed by angiography and treated. The graft was saved, and the patient is still alive and free of disease. The purpose of this paper is to explain the importance of radiology exams in the diagnosis of splenic steal syndrome, explain its pathogenesis and describe the interventional management of this complication.
