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

Pulmonary carcinoids are rare low-grade malignant tumors, which arise from the neuroendocrine system. Approximately 80% of all pulmonary carcinoid tumors are the relatively low-grade typical carcinoids and 20% are the more aggressive atypical carcinoids. Most carcinoids arise from the central airways and only a minority of carcinoids are found in the lung periphery. While most of the peripheral carcinoids are asymptomatic, central carcinoids are symptomatic and present with hemoptysis, wheezing or bronchial obstruction. On computed tomography (CT), carcinoids frequently present as hypervascular pulmonary nodules in close proximity to the bronchial system. Due to the bronchial obstruction, many patients with pulmonary carcinoids present with post-obstructive pneumonia or atelectasis. While fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography CT (FDG-PET/CT) is of limited value in typical carcinoids due to the high rate of false negatives, somatostatin analogs are promising tracers in staging as well as in the planning of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy.
