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) in the caudate lobe presents surgical challenges due to the lack of distinct anatomical landmarks. This case report introduces a novel surgical approach combining Takasaki's classification and indocyanine green negative counterstaining for precise anatomical caudate lobectomy. A 78-year-old patient with hepatocellular carcinoma in the caudate lobe underwent surgery following preoperative volumetric assessment. The method involved a glissonian approach for both left and right pedicles, coupled with meticulous dissection of hepatic pedicles of the caudate lobe guided by taping of left and right glissonian pedicles, followed by indocyanine green administration for improved visualization of caudate lobe boundaries. The procedure enabled complete tumor resection with minimal blood loss. At 50 months postsurgery, the patient maintains favorable liver function and performance status. This innovative approach offers a promising solution for precise resection of caudate lobe hepatocellular carcinoma, potentially improving surgical outcomes and long-term prognosis.
