Thoracoscopic lobectomy after induction therapy-a paradigm shift?
Article in Journal of visualized surgery, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Video-assisted thoracoscopic approaches (or VATS) have gained significant momentum in the management of locally advanced NSCLC in the current era. Accrual of experiences and concurrent improvements in instrumentation and video technology have further enhanced its role in patients with stage IIIA (N2) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, substantial controversy exists around the notion of mediastinal staging and restaging after induction therapy, the utility of induction chemotherapy versus chemoradiation for N2 disease, and subsequent role of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy following induction therapy. This perspective will closely examine these issues in the context of existing guidelines and contemporary studies.
