[Application Effect of Fast Track Surgery for Patients with Lung Cancer: A Meta-analysis].
Synthesis in Zhongguo fei ai za zhi = Chinese journal of lung cancer, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundFast track surgery (FTS) can accelerate rehabilitation and reduce postoperative hospital stay. It has been effectively applied to several surgical diseases. However, the safety and effectiveness of FTS for patients with lung cancer in China is unclear. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effect of FTS undergoing lung cancer surgery in China.
methodsUsing home and abroad databases to search all documents required. The deadline of retrieval was January 31, 2016. Then the studies were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were analyzed by RevMan 5.3 software.
results8 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and 5 clinical controlled trials (CCTs) with 1,241 patients were eligible for analysis. Compared with control group, FTS group can significantly shorten postoperative hospital time (MD=-3.61, 95%CI: -5.05--2.16, P<0.000,01) and chest tube duration (MD=-2.62, 95%CI: -3.07-2.17, P<0.000,01), reduce incidence of postoperative complications (OR=0.30, 95%CI: 0.19-0.47, P<0.000,01) and hospitalization costs (MD=-0.92, 95%CI: -1.19--0.65, P<0.000,01).
conclusionsFTS can safely and effectively accelerate the recovery of patients with lung cancer in China, it exhibits important clinical values.
