Pretransplant mortality in children awaiting living donor liver transplantation: a prospective center-based study.
Article in World journal of pediatric surgery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: High mortality in children awaiting liver transplantation is a significant concern. At Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, the only active and established pediatric living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) center in Indonesia, similar challenges persist. This study aims to determine the mortality rate, time to death or transplantation and causes of death in children listed for LDLT at our center. Methods: This prospective single-center cohort study was conducted from January 2023 to December 2024. Consecutive sampling included all eligible children age 0-18 listed for LDLT. Participants were monitored from listing until pretransplant death, transplantation, loss to follow-up or study completion. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality on the LDLT waiting list. Results: Sixty-two children were enrolled; 64.51% ( Conclusions: Children listed for liver transplantation experience a high waiting list mortality at our center. This is primarily due to infection, malnutrition and socioeconomic factors. Sepsis persists as the principal cause of death. LDLT remains the only feasible option for children requiring liver transplantation in Indonesia.
