Hypervascularized bronchial arteries as a risk factor for intraoperative bleeding and prolonged surgery.
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 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe present study investigated whether highly vascularized bronchial arteries affect the intraoperative blood loss and the operative time of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lobectomy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
resultsAmong the 175 patients enrolled, risk factors for intraoperative blood loss >50 mL were being male (P=0.005), a history of smoking (P=0.01), percent forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1.0%) <70% (P=0.012), squamous cell carcinoma (P=0.049), and a bronchial artery diameter >2.0 mm (P<0.001) in the unadjusted analysis, and a bronchial artery diameter >2.0 mm (P<0.001) in the multivariable analysis. Risk factors for an operative time >200 min were being male (P<0.001), a history of smoking (P=0.007), FEV1.0% <70% (P=0.011), squamous cell carcinoma (P=0.046), a bronchial artery diameter >2.0 mm (P<0.001), and experience of surgeon <10 years (P=0.011) in the unadjusted analysis, and being male (P=0.047), a bronchial artery diameter >2.0 mm (P=0.024), and experience of surgeon <10 years (P=0.047) in the multivariable analysis.
conclusionsBronchial artery diameter was the most important risk factor of intraoperative bleeding and prolonged operative time during VATS lobectomy.
