Endobronchial coils in treatment of advanced emphysema: A single center experience.
Article in Turk gogus kalp damar cerrahisi dergisi, 2019. 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
backgroundThis study aims to present our experience with endobronchial coils in patients who underwent endobronchial lung volume reduction due to advanced emphysema.
methodsThe study included 46 patients (45 males, 1 female; mean age 61.7±8 years; range, 43 to 80 years) who underwent endobronchial lung volume reduction with endobronchial coils for advanced emphysema. Patients" age, gender, pulmonary function tests, post-treatment morbidity, mortality, pre- and post-treatment (6 months) six-minute walking distance, modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scores, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease assessment test and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale scores were recorded.
resultsPatients had an average of 65 pack/year smoking history. An average of 11 (range, 9-15) coils were placed per lobe (right upper lobe=35, left upper lobe=19, right lower lobe=2, left lower lobe=4). Mean follow-up duration was 12.6 months (±5.6 months). Post-treatment forced expiratory volume in one second, residual volume and six-minute walking distance values were improved with statistical significance. Also, significant improvement was seen in quality of life, quantified by modified Medical Research Council, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease assessment test and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale scores. While no immediate major postoperative complications occurred, three patients developed chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbation, two developed pneumonia, and one developed recurrence of previous neurologic disorder within 30 days.
conclusionEndobronchial coil administration provides lower morbidity and mortality compared to lung volume reduction surgery as well as significant improvement in pulmonary functions and quality of life in selected patients with advanced emphysema.
