Perioperative comparison of whether the liver was lifted out of the abdominal cavity in Kasai surgery.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective: To compare the perioperative effect of whether the liver is lifted out of the abdominal cavity during Kasai surgery in patients with biliary atresia type III. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 29 males and 33 females aged 2.2 ± 0.6 months who underwent kasai surgery from June 2019 to December 2022 at Fujian Provincial Children's Hospital. Among the 62 children with the liver not lifted out of the abdominal cavity into the experimental group ( Results: The length of the surgical incision in the control group (7.5 ± 1.2 cm) was longer than that in the experimental group (6.7 ± 1.1 cm), and the difference was statistically significant (t = 2.88, Conclusion: In children with biliary atresia type III, the liver is not lifted out of the abdominal cavity during Kasai surgery increases the safety of surgery and reduces the length of hospital stay.
