Approaches to laparoscopic anatomic liver resection: Does one size fit all?
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Various approaches to laparoscopic anatomic liver resection have been described. In this paper, the authors present a technique that utilizes the ventral avascular areas above the inferior vena cava. While many liver surgeons partially adopt this elements of this method, few employ it to the full extent outlined here. Maintaining low central venous pressure during anesthesia is critical to this approach, as demonstrated by the operative images showing collapsed hepatic veins. This technique is particularly advantageous when the patient's body mass index is low, the tumor is small (or large but deeply embedded within the liver parenchyma), and the overlying liver tissue is not excessively bulky or heavy. Nonetheless, following the conventional course along the Glissonean pedicle can be beneficial. The authors demonstrate notable skill in completing these procedures laparoscopically. However, concerns over margin positivity and tumor recurrence remain, and follow up studies are needed to further validate the approach.
