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

Along with the progresses that have been made in techniques and instruments, uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) became more and more popular. Here, we present the operation video of a 52-year-old female with early stage lung cancer in the right upper lobe (RUL), who underwent uniportal VATS right upper lobectomy and systemic mediastinal lymph nodes dissection performed by our team. The video demonstrated the Uniportal VATS techniques of hilar anatomy, bronchus and blood vessel separation, mediastinal lymph node areas exploration and en-bloc dissection. Once the vision angle is properly adapted, techniques and instruments are mastered, and the patients are well selected, uniportal VATS approach can be an alternative to the conventional VATS for early stage lung cancer.
