The role of EUS in liver transplantation.
Review in Hepatology forum, 2026. 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
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is being increasingly used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in various settings in gastroenterology and hepatology. Similarly, it has also been adopted in liver transplantation (LT), and its utilization is steadily increasing. EUS strengthens LT care in both the pre-transplant and post-transplant periods. Specifically, EUS is valuable in the evaluation of liver parenchyma, portal hypertension assessment and variceal management, tissue sampling when percutaneous or transjugular approaches are contraindicated or impractical, detection and characterization of hepatic and nodal metastases-thereby refining staging and sometimes even eligibility for LT-management of postoperative collections, and enabling biliary and pancreatic interventions in altered anatomy by creating access routes. In this review, we discuss these applications of EUS, along with its current limitations and its evolving role in the setting of LT.
