Increasing Prevalence and High Survival Rate of Liver Transplanted Patients with NASH and PSC Cirrhosis.
Article in Archives of Iranian medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundEpidemiological studies on liver transplant (LT) patients can provide valuable information about the etiology and trends of cirrhosis. The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence and trend of different etiologies and survival rates of LT patients at the Namazi Transplant Center in Shiraz, Iran, between 2001 and 2018.
methodsIn this single-center, retrospective cohort study, the demographic and clinical characteristics of 3751 patients who underwent LT and met the study inclusion criteria, including age, gender, blood group, body mass index, model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score, cause of cirrhosis, and diabetes, were extracted from patients' physical or electronic medical records between 2001 and 2018.
resultsThe MELD scores of LT patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), hepatitis B virus (HBV), and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) cirrhosis significantly decreased over the study period (
conclusionThe proportion of NASH and PSC cirrhosis significantly increased during the 18 years of study. However, these patients had an improved survival rate. Therefore, health organizations should pay more attention to non-communicable diseases, especially fatty liver disease and cholangitis.
