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

objectivesTo evaluate the risk factors for haemoptysis after cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT)-guided percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy (PTNB), particularly on whether the enlargement of main pulmonary artery diameter (mPAD) is a risk factor for PTNB-related haemoptysis.

methods4,172 cases of CBCT-guided PTNBs in 3,840 patients were retrospectively included in this study. Various data including mPAD measured on preprocedural CT images were evaluated using logistic regression analyses to determine significant risk factors for both haemoptysis and severe haemoptysis, designated as when blood transfusion, vascular embolisation or cardiopulmonary resuscitation were required to manage patients with haemoptysis.

resultsHaemoptysis occurred in 5.78 % (241/4172) of all PTNB procedures, while severe haemoptysis occurred in 0.18 % (7/4172). Female sex, history of antiplatelet or anticoagulative drugs, prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time, subsolid nodules, cavitary nodules and long pleura-to-target distance were revealed to be independent risk factors for haemoptysis, while mPAD enlargement (> 29.5 mm) was not. Regarding severe haemoptysis, however, mPAD enlargement was demonstrated to be an independent risk factor along with the presence of subsolid and cavitary target nodules.

conclusionmPAD enlargement was not a significant risk factor for PTNB-related haemoptysis; however, it was a significant risk factor for severe haemoptysis. KEY POINTS: • mPAD enlargement was a significant risk factor for severe PTNB-related haemoptysis. • mPAD can be useful in screening high-risk patients for severe haemoptysis. • Subsolid or cavitary nodule was another significant risk factor for severe haemoptysis.
