Feasibility of surgical application of the ligamentum teres hepatis: a review.
Review in iLIVER, 2023. 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
Ligamentum teres hepatis (LTH), a normal anatomical tissue in the liver, is frequently observed during abdominal surgery. Its unique positional and structural characteristics give it a wide range of potential clinical applications, including but not limited to repairing peptic perforation, preventing hemorrhage, treating hiatal hernia, and strengthening the biliary/pancreatic intestine anastomosis to prevent biliary and pancreatic leak. The current review summarizes kinds of methods of using LTH in abdominal surgery, especially some new clinical applications in recent years, involving various organs and fields. At the same time, domestic and foreign literature and research in the past five years are cited to demonstrate the feasibility of these applications. This review may guide surgeons to think and explore more new applications of LTH in all surgery fields.
