Association Between Distance to the Transplant Center and Survival Following Living Donor Liver Transplantation.
Article in Annals of gastroenterological surgery, 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
Aim: To determine whether the distance from home to our transplant center affects posttransplant survival in patients undergoing living donor liver transplantation. Methods: Data from 301 adult patients who underwent primary living donor liver transplantation at our center between January 2000 and July 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. The patients were divided into three groups according to the distance of their homes from our center: Group 1, 0-9 miles ( Results: Graft and patient survival rates were significantly lower in Group 3 than in Group 1 ( Conclusion: Greater distances to the transplant center may negatively affect posttransplant outcomes. Therefore, patients who have undergone living donor liver transplantation and who reside in areas far from specialized medical services should be monitored with caution.
