Surgical treatment for synchronous multiple primary lung cancer: Is it possible to achieve both curability and preservation of the pulmonary function?
Article in Thoracic cancer, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
backgroundWith the advent of high-resolution chest imaging, the number of patients diagnosed with multiple primary lung cancers is increasing. For the treatment of multiple lung cancers, a surgical procedure that preserves pulmonary function while ensuring curability is required.
methodsThe study population included 85 patients with synchronous multiple primary lung cancer who received surgical resection between January 2010 and September 2020. Patients with synchronous lung cancer within the same lobe were excluded, and only patients with ≥2 involved lobes were included. The postoperative pulmonary function was examined at 3-6 months after the surgery.
resultsSixty-seven patients had cancers within the ipsilateral lobe, and 18 patients had cancers in bilateral lobes. Seventy-six patients (89.4%) underwent combination surgery with limited resection (e.g., segmentectomy and wedge resection). The preoperative pulmonary functions (mean VC/%VC, mean FEV
conclusionsSurgical treatment including limited resection, especially segmentectomy and wedge resection, for synchronous multiple primary lung cancer can preserve pulmonary function while ensuring curability.
