Impact of donor age on short-term outcomes after pediatric split liver transplantation.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2023. 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: Donor shortage is an important limitation of liver transplantation (LT). Split liver transplantation (SLT) may increase the sources of donors and reduce the problem of organ shortage. However, there are no standard criteria of the selection of SLT donor, especially regarding the donor age. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of children who received initial SLT between January 2015 and December 2021. Based on the age of donors, the patients were divided into groups A (1-10 years old; Results: A total of 140 patients received SLT from 122 donors. The 1-, 3- and 12-month patient survival rates in group A were 100.0%, and the graft survival rates were 92.3%. The 1-, 3- and 12-month survival rates of patient and graft in group B were 97.7%, 96.6%, and 95.0%, respectively, and in group C were 85.2%, 85.2%, and 81.1%, respectively. The patient survival rate was significantly lower in group C than in groups A and B ( Conclusions: Similar results were obtained for pediatric SLT with donors <10 years old and 10-45 years old. Pediatric SLT can be performed with older donors (45-55 years) after strict donor selection and selection of appropriate recipients.
