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

purposeTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of computed tomography (CT)-guided MATERIAL AND

methodsBetween June 2015 and June 2018, 40 patients from three medical institutions with malignant airway compression induced by advanced lung cancer were treated with

resultsAll 40 patients successfully underwent implantation procedure. No procedure-associated death occurred. The most common complications were irritable cough, temporary hemoptysis, chest pain, fever, and pneumothorax, which occurred in 26 (65.0%), 31 (77.5%), 12 (30.0%), 15 (37.5%), and 11 (27.5%) patients, respectively. The objective response rates were 100%, 100%, 100%, 87.5%, and 83.3% at the 3

conclusionsFor patients with malignant airway compression induced by advanced lung cancer, implantation with
