1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

We reported previously that a large vertical interval between the hepatic segment of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and right atrium (RA), referred to as the IVC-RA gap, was associated with more intraoperative bleeding during hemi-hepatectomy. We conducted a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study to clarify the impact of fluid dynamics resulting from morphologic variations around the liver. The subjects were 10 patients/donors with a large IVC-RA gap and 10 patients/donors with a small IVC-RA gap. Three-dimensional reconstructions of the IVC and hepatic vessels were created from CT images for the CFD study. Median pressure in the middle hepatic vein was significantly higher in the large-gap group than in the small-gap group (P = 0.008). Differences in hepatic vein pressure caused by morphologic variation in the IVC might be one of the mechanisms of intraoperative bleeding from the hepatic veins.
