Advances in study of the sequence of lung tumor biopsy and thermal ablation.
Review in Thoracic cancer, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Percutaneous thermal ablation is an important treatment for lung cancer and is widely used in hospitals. Puncture biopsy is generally required for pathological diagnosis before or after thermal ablation. Pathological diagnosis provides both evidence of benign and malignant lesions for ablation therapy and is of important significance for the next step in disease management. Furthermore, the sequence of ablation and biopsy affects the accuracy of pathological diagnosis, the complete ablation rate of thermal ablation, and incidence of surgery-related complications. Ultimately, it may affect the patient's benefit from local treatment. This article reviews the research progress of traditional asynchronous biopsy followed by ablation, the emerging methods of synchronous biopsy followed by ablation, and synchronous ablation followed by biopsy in the last decade. KEY POINTS: The sequence of ablation and biopsy affects the accuracy of pathological diagnosis, the complete ablation rate of thermal ablation, and the incidence of surgical-related complications. This article reviewed the recent 10 years' literature on the surgical sequence of biopsy and ablation for lung tumors, the advantages, disadvantages and indications of different orders were analyzed.
