Evaluation of correlation between etiology of end stage liver disease and intraoperative utilization of blood products during liver transplantation.
Article in Saudi journal of anaesthesia. 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
Background: Liver transplantation is frequently associated with massive blood loss and utilization of blood products to optimize coagulation; this study aimed to evaluate their possible correlation with etiological and perioperative factors. Methods: A retrospective analysis of adult liver transplant (LT) recipients (excluding re-do transplants) operated upon at our center between 2011 and 2021 was conducted using R package with rBiostatistics.com graphical user interface. Results: Of the 947 cases, 70.70% had cirrhosis, and 28.6% hepatocellular carcinoma, as secondary diagnoses; the most common primary diagnosis was viral hepatitis (B = 20.9% and C = 20.0%). The mean blood loss volume was 3393.2 ml. Living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) recipients (n = 740, 78.2%) had lesser blood loss (mean difference 738 mL, Conclusion: The blood loss and the blood products transfusion requirements in LT are influenced by the etiology, graft type, and other perioperative factors such as BMI.
