Primary liver transplantation
Article in World journal of transplantation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundBiliary atresia (BA) is the most common indication for pediatric liver trans plantation, although portoenterostomy is usually performed first. However, due to the high failure rate of portoenterostomy, liver transplantation has been advocated as the primary procedure for patients with BA. It is still unclear if a previous portoenterostomy has a negative impact on liver transplantation outcomes.
aimTo investigate the effect of prior portoenterostomy in infants un dergoing liver transplantation for BA.
methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study of 42 pediatric patients with BA who underwent primary liver transplantation from 2013 to 2023 at a single tertiary center in Brazil. Patients with BA were divided into two groups: Those under going primary liver transplantation without portoenterostomy and those undergoing liver transplantation with prior portoenterostomy. Continuous variables were compared using the Student's
resultsForty-two patients were included in the study (25 [60%] girls), 23 undergoing liver transplantation without prior portoenterostomy, and 19 undergoing liver transplantation with prior portoenterostomy. Patients with prior portoenterostomy were older (12
conclusionIn our study, prior portoenterostomy did not significantly affect the outcomes of liver transplantation.
