Lobectomy with angioplasty: which is the best technique for pulmonary artery reconstruction?
Review in Journal of thoracic disease, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Lobectomies with bronchial and/or vascular reconstruction are conservative procedures aimed at managing locally advanced lung cancer, avoiding a pneumonectomy. Considering morbidity, mortality and the functional consequences of a pneumonectomy, such procedures must be in the technical armamentarium of every thoracic surgeon. Vascular reconstruction of the pulmonary artery (PA) is seldom performed with or without the bronchial sleeve resection. Both functional and oncologic outcomes have been reported to be better than after a pneumonectomy. Different technical options are now available but some aspects and technical details are not standardized. Indications, possible complications, planning and even definitions need to be more solid to allow for definitive improvement in such procedures. This analysis is aimed at assessing the acquired technical data with special emphasis on the PA reconstruction with autologous tissues.
