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

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, with increasing incidence. There are different treatment options, but only 30%-40% of HCC cases are diagnosed at an early stage for curative treatment. With the implementation of Milan Criteria for liver transplantation (LT) in HCC cases and its use for organ allocation with successful outcomes, LT has become an optimal treatment. Seeking new criteria for LT and developing updated algorithms for HCC treatment has become a hot topic nowadays. With the experience in living donor liver transplantation (LDLT), especially in Asian countries, LDLT was established and adopted with different criteria for HCC treatment, especially including criteria beyond Milan's size and number of tumors. Living donor grafts are uniquely different than deceased donor grafts as they are not considered a public resource. A living donor graft is rather a private gift intended for a specific recipient. Living donor livers are not limited by organ allocation systems, and this significant advantage of LDLT has opened new frontiers in the treatment of HCC. Improvements in LDLT have had remarkable parallel effects in the successful treatment of HCC as supported by a growing body of literature in the past decade.
