Indications and outcomes of liver transplantation for liver tumors in the United States.

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
Background: While hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains the leading cause of liver transplant (LT) for liver tumors, indications have broadened over the years. Data regarding patient characteristics and outcomes of LT for liver tumors are limited. Methods: From Jan-2002 to March-2022, 14,406 LT recipients for various liver tumors were identified in United Network for Organ Sharing database. Overall post-transplant survival analysis was performed with Kaplan-Meier method and multivariable Cox proportional-hazards model. Results: During the study period, indications for LT for various hepatic tumors were HCC (88.5 %), benign tumors (5.1 %), cholangiocarcinoma (3.9 %), angiosarcoma (0.7 %), bile duct cancer (0.7 %), secondary tumors (0.5 %) and others (0.7 %). Compared to non-HCC, LT recipients for HCC were older (median age 61 vs 54 years, Conclusions: LT is performed for various liver tumors with variable outcomes among these primary indications.
