Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma Presenting With Severe Tracheal Deviation: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is usually diagnosed in adults between the ages of 18-35 years. Here, we present a case of a young adult who presented with severe tracheal deviation and was diagnosed with advanced-stage NSCLC with no past medical or social histories; she presented with worsening right arm pain, numbness, and tingling over the course of three weeks. She presented to an urgent care center that prescribed her nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and muscle relaxants without any symptom improvement. Her pain continued to worsen, and she went to the emergency department (ED) where an X-ray and CT angiogram were performed revealing a large right lung mass severely compressing the trachea. Biopsies confirmed non-small cell lung cancer and the patient was started on chemotherapy. As clinicians, sometimes we do not pay attention to young patients with nonspecific complaints. This case clearly reflects the importance of proper evaluation of symptoms even though there is low clinical suspicion.
