HPB ultrasound guidance techniques - Targeting.
Article in Surgery open science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ultrasound is an indispensable tool for intraoperative assessment and treatment of hepatopancreatobiliary pathology. As minimally invasive approaches to HPB surgery continue to expand and the benefits of parenchymal-sparing liver surgery are increasingly appreciated, skillful targeting will play an even bigger role in HPB surgical practice. Techniques for intraoperative targeting of liver lesions for the purposes of biopsy and ablation, particularly in the laparoscopic setting, are the focus of this chapter. Current evidence supports the use of ablation for a variety of liver lesions including hepatocellular carcinoma and metastatic colorectal cancer, particularly for smaller lesions. Successful targeting requires optimization of patient position and port placement. When targeting multiple lesions, thoughtful treatment sequencing is critical to maintaining visualization and optimizing outcomes.
