HEPATECTOMIES: INDICATIONS AND RESULTS FROM A REFERENCE HOSPITAL IN THE BRAZILIAN AMAZON.
Article in Arquivos brasileiros de cirurgia digestiva : ABCD = Brazilian archives of digestive surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundHepatectomy is historically associated with higher morbidity and mortality, related to intraoperative blood loss and biliary fistulas. Technological advances and improvements in surgical and anesthetic techniques have led to greater safety in performing these surgeries.
aimsThe aim of this study was to analyze morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing hepatectomy.
methodsRetrospective cohort study of patients undergoing liver resections. The type of hepatectomy, indications, need for intraoperative blood transfusion, hospital stay, complications, and postoperative mortality were analyzed.
resultsA total of 48 hepatectomies were performed during the studied period, the most common being 26 (54.16%) major hepatectomies, distributed among 13 (50%) left hepatectomies, 11 (42.30%) right hepatectomies, and 2 (7.70%) others. In total, 24 (45.84%) minor hepatectomies were performed, 11 (50%) mono segmentectomies, and 5 (22.72%) left lateral hepatectomies. The main indications for resection in benign diseases were 6 (12.50%) neotropical hepatic hydatidosis, five (10.41%) intrahepatic lithiasis, and in primary malignancies, 9 (18.75%) hepatocarcinomas. There was no need for an intraoperative blood transfusion. Hospital stays after surgery ranged from 2 to 40 days (average=7 days), and 41 (85.42%) patients went to the ICU in the first 72 h after surgery. In total, 9 (18.75%) patients developed postoperative complications. Overall mortality was 2.08%.
conclusionsHepatocellular carcinoma and neotropical hydatidosis were the main diseases with surgical indication, and major hepatectomies were the most performed procedures. Morbidity and mortality were in line with results from major global centers.
