Analysis of pulmonary nodules caused by nontuberculous mycobacteriosis in 101 resected cases: multi-center retrospective study.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundSolitary pulmonary nodules caused by nontuberculous mycobacteriosis are included as a category of pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacterium disease. Clinical characteristics, treatments and prognosis are not fully known because there are a few related reports.
methodsThis was a multi-center retrospective study of 101 cases diagnosed as solitary nodular type of nontuberculous mycobacteriosis from January 2000 to March 2017 that underwent resection at 9 related facilities belonging to the Thoracic Surgery Study Group of Osaka.
resultsThe most common pathogen was
conclusionsSolitary pulmonary nodules due to nontuberculous mycobacteriosis is difficult to diagnose based on preoperative examination results or distinguish from lung cancer. Among the present cases, none had local complications or recurrence, even in those that underwent a wedge resection, thus postoperative chemotherapy was not considered necessary if a complete resection was performed. On the other hand, some cases showed reinfection after a long period following resection, thus patients should be informed of that future possibility.
