Navigational bronchoscopy at a community hospital: clinical and economic outcomes.
Article in Lung cancer management, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
aimTo evaluate the clinical and financial impact of introducing electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) at a community center.
methodsThis retrospective, single-arm, single-center study evaluated 90 consecutive patients who had undergone ENB in 2012. Radial probe endobronchial ultrasound was used to localize the lesion after initial ENB. ENB-aided diagnoses, follow-up procedures and treatments, and adverse events were collected through 2 years.
resultsENB was conducted for lung biopsy (86 patients), fiducial placement (five), and/or dye marking (two). ENB-aided diagnostic yield was 82.6% (71/86), including 36 malignant and 35 nonmalignant cases. NSCLC was stage I-II in 84.6%. There were four false negatives. Sensitivity and negative predictive value were 90.0 and 88.6%. Pneumothorax occurred in 6/90 (5/6 with chest tube) and minor bleeding in four. The downstream revenue of new ENB cases was US$363,654.
conclusionENB introduction provided high diagnostic yield, early-stage diagnosis, acceptable safety, and was financially justified.
