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

A 67-year-old woman was presented with a mediastinal tumor extending from the left lobe of the thyroid and passing through the posterior trachea, causing displacement of the esophagus to the left side of the patient and then descending into the right side of the mediastinum to below the carina. Surgery was performed under two-lung ventilation with the patient in a prone position; general anesthesia was performed with a single-lumen tube combined with artificial pneumothorax. In thoracoscopic surgery, we were able to confirm and preserve anatomical structures. After detachment of the tumor at the level of the left and right subclavian arteries, the patient was placed supine, a cervical incision was added, and the tumor was extracted. The tumor was diagnosed as a nonmalignant mediastinal goiter (MG). No such surgical report was found in the literature, and one would be useful for this new approach to MG removal.
