The role of the minimally invasive surgery in the management of paediatric liver tumours.
Article in Ecancermedicalscience, 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
Minimally invasive surgical techniques are increasingly adopted for the management of hepatic masses in children. Laparoscopic liver biopsy can be used to obtain tissue diagnosis while avoiding the risks of open surgery and providing improved cosmesis. Laparoscopic or robotic liver resection has more gradually been adopted in children than in adults but can be utilized for appropriately located tumours as long as oncologic principles are maintained. Patient size is a factor when choosing whether to perform liver resection via a minimally invasive approach. Laparoscopic radiofrequency ablation offers an alternative strategy to surgery for paediatric patients with small masses or can serve as a bridge to transplant.
