Outcomes after Liver Transplantation with Steatotic Grafts: Redefining Acceptable Cutoffs for Steatotic Grafts.
Article in Euroasian journal of hepato-gastroenterology, 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
Background: Graft macrosteatosis can predispose to a higher risk of graft loss so we sought to redefine acceptable cutoffs for graft steatosis. Methods: Data of 26,103 donors who underwent liver transplantation (LT) between January 2004 and December 2018 from the UNOS-STAR database were utilized. A high-risk steatotic (HRS) graft and a low-risk steatotic (LRS) graft were defined as ≥20% and <20% macrosteatosis, respectively. High-risk steatotic grafts were further classified as grafts with 20-29% (G1S grafts), 30-39% (G2S grafts), and ≥40% steatosis (G3S grafts). Outcomes between groups were compared. Results: LRS grafts had excellent graft (93.3 and 87.7%) and overall survival (95.4 and 90.5%) at 90 days and 1 year. Compared to LRS grafts, G1S, G2S, and G3S grafts had worse graft and overall survival at 90 days and 1-year ( Discussion: Liver grafts can be categorized into three categories: (1) <20% or "very low risk", (2) 20-39% or "low-to-moderate risk", and usually acceptable, and (3) ≥40% steatosis or "moderate-to-high risk".
