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
Today, video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) was very popular and more and more common, which could be carried out at all levels of medical centers, most of which used multiple-ports VATS techniques. However, uniportal VATS was more difficult technique compared with multiple-ports VATS, and was not yet completely universal. Uniportal port VATS with 2 cm incision was more difficult surgery, and asked the surgeon to master more surgical techniques and good collaborations with each other, however, which not only could reduce the postoperative pain and skin numbness but supply cosmetology and psychological comfort for patients. To reduce unnecessary damage to patients, we minimized the incision to 2 cm. Therefore, we called it precise uniportal port VATS technique in our surgical center and introduced it here.
