[Rationale of thoracic lymph node dissection in pulmonary metastasectomy].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The goal of metastasectomy is a R0 resection. Depending of the tumor entity the prevalence of lymph node metastases in pulmonary metastasectomy can be up to 45%; however, systematic lymph node dissection is not yet established as a fixed component of metastasectomy. Although there is a high prevalence of lymph node metastases and the increase in the prevalence with a higher number of lung metastases, it remains unclear if a systematic lymph node dissection should be part of pulmonary metastasectomy. For this reason, the goal of this review was to evaluate the rationale of systematic lymph node dissection in pulmonary metastasectomy based on the currently available literature. Furthermore, it was investigated whether patients with additional thoracic lymph node metastases should be excluded per se from pulmonary metastasectomy, even though positive lymph node metastases might be associated with a lower but nevertheless good long-term survival after resection.
