[VATS - technique and indications].
Article in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has revolutionized the practice of thoracic surgeons and improved patient experiences and outcomes worldwide. The VATS approach has matured over the past decades and now accounts for approximately 50 % of all operations in specialized thoracic surgery units. The VATS procedure is less invasive and therefore allows a faster recovery of patients. Over the last 20 years VATS has developed into a safe and effective technique for the diagnostics and therapy of many thoracic diseases. With increasing experience thoracic surgeons can carry out more advanced and technically challenging interventions. Nowadays, VATS is the superior technique in many cases of thoracotomy.
