Extended resection for unexpected invasion of the left sided lung cancer into the liver: combined lung, diaphragm, and liver resection.

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
Complete anatomic lung resection remains the best curative option in patients with early-stage lung cancer. In some cases, extended lung resections are required to achieve R0 resection. Although diaphragmatic invasion and resection is a well-known condition in lung cancer, direct invasion of the diaphragm and liver in lung cancer is rare. We report a 66-year-old man with left-sided lung cancer. Preoperative evaluation revealed the risk of diaphragm invasion, but the liver invasion was detected intraoperatively. In addition to left pneumonectomy, left-sided partial liver and diaphragm resection was performed. At 24 months from the operation, the patient is alive without any disease progression. We believe that combined resection including lung, diaphragm, and liver may have survival benefits in selected cases.
