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

Liver retransplantation is a technically demanding procedure, particularly in patients with complex surgical histories and vascular complications such as hepatic artery thrombosis (HAT). We report the case of a 25-year-old woman who underwent a third liver transplant for graft cirrhosis. The procedure was technically demanding due to multiple adhesions, porta hepatic fibrosis, portal hypertension, and hypoplastic vasculature. Arterial reconstruction used an end-to-side anastomosis between the donor's celiac trunk and the recipient's splenic artery. On postoperative day 3, she underwent acute HAT and needed an urgent retransplantation (fourth liver). A new arterial anastomosis was created between the origin of the splenic artery and a Carrel patch from the donor's celiac trunk. The patient made a full recovery. This case highlights the technical challenges of liver retransplantation and the importance of individualized vascular strategies.
