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

Hepatic venous outflow is a pivotal factor in liver transplant. However, venous anomalies and the potential for hepatic venous congestion continue to remain major points of concern to ensure the viability of transplanted livers and maximize regenerative capacity. We present a 66-year-old patient undergoing liver transplantation who was found to have anomalous venous drainage requiring venous anastomoses. To ensure adequate venous flow and minimize the possibility of graft congestion and liver dysfunction, the anesthetic management of the patient's hemodynamic status was of utmost importance. The use of osmotic diuretics and intraoperative sonography was used to ensure adequate perfusion.
