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

In the modern era, thoracic surgeons are experiencing an increase interest in imaging patterns of early stage lung cancer due to the introduction of the ground glass opacity in clinical practice, and for the necessity to an accurate cancer localization to perform the appropriate type of resection. In this brief review we analyze the latest news regarding imaging patterns of early pulmonary nodules with special emphasis to ground glass opacity.
