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

Background: Split liver transplantation (SLT) expands the donor pool, but optimal arterial configuration remains debated. We report outcomes of right-sided Methods: Retrospective Multicentre analysis of 36 consecutive adult recipients of right-sided split grafts (2015-2025) with celiac trunk preservation. Primary outcomes included vascular complications, patient/graft survival, and comparison with published benchmarks. Results: Recipients (mean age 54.0 ± 12.6 years, 53% male) underwent SLT for HCV (30.6%), NASH (19.4%), and other etiologies. Major vascular complications occurred in 12/36 (33%) of cases, though life-threatening events remained uncommon: HAT 2.8%, postoperative PVT 5.6%, arterial stenosis 5.6%. Biliary complications occurred in 25% (ischemic 8.3%, technical 17%). Patient survival was 86% at 1 year and 81% at 3 years. Reoperation rate was 47%, primarily for biliary complications (17%) and intra-abdominal abscess (14%). Retransplantation rate was 11%. Conclusion: Right-sided SLT with celiac trunk preservation achieves excellent vascular outcomes, with both HAT (2.8%) and PVT (5.6%) rates meeting international benchmarks. These results strongly support this configuration as the preferred technical approach for
