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
objectiveTo analyze the clinicopathological characteristics and risk factors of 4L lymph node metastasis in left non-small cell lung cancer.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data of 134 patients undergoing surgical resection of left non-small cell lung cancer and 4L lymph node dissection, including 60 patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and 74 with lung adenocarcinoma (ADC). The clinicopathological characteristics of the patients were analyzed, and logistic regression analysis was used to identify the predictors of station 4L metastasis.
resultsOf these patients, 16.4% (22/134) presented with station 4L metastasis. The patients with SCC and ADC showed significant differences in age, gender, smoking history, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, tumor size, tumor location and type, visceral pleural invasion, Ki-67 index, 4L metastasis and pathological TNM stage (stage Ⅱ). The rate of station 4L metastasis was significantly lower in SCC group than in ADC group. Univariate analysis revealed that pathological types (SCC or ADC), visceral pleural invasion, lymphovascular invasion, tumor markerabnormality, and station 5 to 10 metastasis were all high-risk factors for station 4L metastasis. Multivariate analysis suggested that the pathological type (OR=0.120,
conclusionsIn patients with left non-small cell lung cancer, station 4L metastasis is not rare and is more likely to occur in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Dissection of the 4L lymph nodes should be performed in cases with low risk of damages of the adjacent tissues and high risk of station 4L metastasis.
