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

backgroundVideo-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has been widely applied to various types of pulmonary and mediastinal resections in recent years. However, there are still limited experiences of simultaneous thoracoscopic resection for lung cancer and mediastinal tumor. The aim of the study is to investigate the technical safety and feasibility of uniportal VATS for simultaneous resection for concurrent diseases of lung and anterior mediastinum and to compare with multiportal VATS.

methodsFrom June 2014 to December 2017, all patients who underwent simultaneously thoracoscopic resection for lung cancer and anterior mediastinal mass under uniportal or multiportal VATS via the same incision were retrospectively reviewed. Study cohort was divided according to surgical approach. Perioperative outcomes, including operative time, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative hospitalization, were compared between uniportal and multiportal VATS groups.

resultsA total of 51 patients were included in the study, of whom 33 patients had uniportal VATS and 18 patients had multiportal VATS. When compared to multiportal VATS group, uniportal VATS group had similar time of operation (149.1±49.0

conclusionsUniportal VATS for simultaneously thoracoscopic resection for lung cancer and anterior mediastinal disease is technically safe and feasible and has comparable operative parameters with multiportal VATS.
