Percutaneous Hepatic Perfusion Melphalan Induced Sinusoidal Obstruction Syndrome (Veno-Occlusive Disease) in a Patient with Metastatic Uveal Melanoma.
Article in Case reports in oncology. 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
Introduction: Percutaneous hepatic perfusion using the HEPZATO KIT Case Presentation: The patient is a 49-year-old male with a history of hepatic metastatic uveal melanoma. Despite several rounds of trans-arterial chemoembolization, the patient had progression of liver disease and was then treated with percutaneous hepatic perfusion. Several weeks later, the patient was found to have liver injury and was diagnosed with biopsy-proven sinusoidal obstruction syndrome. He was treated with defibrotide and symptoms resolved, but passed away several months later due to progression in metastatic disease. Conclusion: To our knowledge, this represents the first case of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome after melphalan administration for percutaneous hepatic perfusion. Rapid progression of disease versus sinusoidal obstruction disease must be considered in patients who present with signs of liver injury/failure after this procedure as prompt diagnosis and treatment are crucial.
