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

The liver has a strong regenerative capacity that ensures patient recovery after hepatectomy and liver transplantation. The portal system plays a crucial role in the dual blood supply to the liver, making it a significant factor in hepatic function. Several surgical strategies, such as portal vein ligation, associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy, and dual vein embolization, have highlighted the portal system's importance in liver regeneration. Following hepatectomy or liver transplantation, the hemodynamic properties of the portal system change dramatically, triggering regeneration via shear stress and the induction of hypoxia. However, excessive portal hyperperfusion can harm the liver and negatively affect patient outcomes. Furthermore, as the importance of the gut-liver axis has gradually been revealed, the effect of metabolites and cytokines from gut microbes carried by portal blood on liver regeneration has been acknowledged. From these perspectives, this review outlines the molecular mechanisms of the portal system's role in liver regeneration and summarizes therapeutic strategies based on the portal system intervention to promote liver regeneration.
