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

With the development of interventional pulmonology, photodynamic therapy (PDT) is gradually being used in the treatment of respiratory malignant tumors because of its low level of trauma, high specificity, and compatibility with traditional or common therapies. However, at present, the data of clinical evidence-based medicine for PDT applied in central airway tumors is very limited, and derives mainly from case reports or series of case studies which lack consensus on clinical diagnosis and treatment. In order to further disseminate China's experience, the Tumor Photodynamic Therapy Committee of China Anti-Cancer Association and the World Endoscopy Association-Respiratory Endoscopy Association invited experts from relevant fields to form an expert committee. After several rounds of discussion and revision by this committee, and following a vote, the consensus was formulated for reference by physicians in respiratory, oncology and other related disciplines to refer to the practice of tumor photodynamic therapy.
