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

backgroundComplications cannot always be avoided and their treatment is an integral component of a high quality medical treatment. Complications of the central airways are rare but necessitate supportive treatment by an experienced thoracic surgeon.

objectiveThe reader should become acquainted with measures to prevent complications, to recognize and treat complications early and should understand the necessity for an interdisciplinary approach. MATERIAL AND

methodsA selective literature research was supplemented by personal experiences and complemented with prospectively collected photographs.

resultsThere are risk constellations for the appearance of all the mentioned complications which the surgeon needs to know in order to be able to take measures for early detection of complications. Iatrogenic tracheal injuries and bronchial stump fistulae are rare (< 5 %) whereas recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy after left-sided pneumonectomy occurs in up to 30 % of cases. DISCUSSION: After the occurrence of complications at the latest, it is very important to include experienced thoracic surgeons and other specialists when necessary to protect the patient from further damage.
