Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy Combined Endobronchial Ultrasound in the Diagnosis of Lung Nodules.
Article in Medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
abstractElectromagnetic navigational bronchoscopy (ENB) combined with a radial endobronchial ultrasound probe realizes a combination of magnetic navigation and ultrasound imaging, allowing for the accurate navigation of peripheral lung lesions in real time during surgery. ENB has been evaluated in many studies. However, a comparative report on the feasibility of ENB combined radial endobronchial ultrasound diagnosis in different density lung nodules was small, and few of these studies have reported long-term follow-up results to exclude false negative results. The aim of this study is to explore the applicability of ENB combined radial endobronchial ultrasound in the diagnosis of lung nodules with different densities.Patients underwent biopsy in our medical center from 2016-09 to 2019-03 were divided into 2 groups: the solid nodule group and the subsolid pulmonary nodule group. We collected and analyzed the diagnostic accuracy, the diagnostic yield, the false negative rate and the incidence of complications between these 2 groups.A total of 37 lesions in 25 patients were biopsied, 14 lesions were subsolid pulmonary nodules and 23 were solid nodules. The diagnostic accuracy (success rate to obtain meaningful pathology tissues) was 34/37 (91.8%). Lost to follow-up in 1 case and three cases were undiagnosed. After at least 12 months of follow-up, the total diagnostic yield (true positive rate+ true negative rate) was 27/36 (75%) (P = .006). The false negative rate was 9/19 (47.3%) (P = .26). Complications occurred in 1/36 (2.7%) lesions. For the subsolid pulmonary nodule group, the diagnostic accuracy was 13/14 (92.8%) and the diagnostic yield was 7/14 (50%). For the solid nodule group, the diagnostic accuracy was 21/23 (91.3%), and the diagnostic yield was 20/22 (90.9%).Electromagnetic navigational bronchoscopy combined with radial endobronchial ultrasound in peripheral lung nodule biopsies is safe and effective, especially for solid nodules, but the diagnostic yield in subsolid nodule biopsies remains to be improved.
