Concomitant diverticulosis among patients undergoing liver transplantation. Does it influence the length of hospitalization after the procedure?
Article in Clinical and experimental hepatology, 2023. 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
Aim of the study: We tried to assess the influence of concomitant diverticulosis and other factors, e.g., Child-Pugh (C-P) and MELD scores, viral etiology, and presence of alcoholic disease, on short-term results of liver transplantation (LT) with an emphasis on duration of patient's hospitalization. Material and methods: This prospective study was performed on 206 cirrhotic patients who were selected for LT. In order to assess the presence of diverticculosis we performed colonoscopy. Results: The duration of hospitalization after LT did not differ significantly between patients with and without diverticulosis (27.5 [21.0-33.5] vs. 24.0 [18.0-32.0] days, Conclusions: Presence of diverticulosis among subjects undergoing LT did not influence the duration of hospitalization after the procedure. Significantly longer hospitalization was observed in patients with the most advanced liver disease according to C-P score. To determine the exact impact of diverticulosis on short-term results of LT additional studies are required.
