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

backgroundThe right hepatic vein (RHV) is a crucial anatomical landmark, usually fully exposed during laparoscopic right posterior sectionectomy (LRPS).

methodsA 51-year-old male was diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma in the right posterior section. Three-dimensional (3D) analysis indicated that Segment 6 extended over the ventral side of the RHV, and Segment 8 extended over the dorsal side of the RHV, which leads to the right intersectional plane being irregular and curved. Following the blockage of the right posterior Glissonean pedicle (RPGP) guided by ARN, ICG negative staining was performed. The fluorescent boundaries demonstrated concordance with the preoperative 3D model. The intrahepatic transection plane was guided by fluorescence imaging navigation combined with the identification of hepatic veins through ARN.

resultsThe total operative time was 415 min with blood loss of 100 ml. The patient did not experience complications.

conclusionsThe utilization of ICG fluorescence imaging combined with ARN for LRPS in cases with irregular right intersectional planes has proven safe and feasible.
