1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo assess prebiopsy characteristics influencing the occurrence of pneumothorax after first puncture of ultrasound (US)-guided lung biopsy with coaxial technique. MATERIALS AND

methodsFrom January 2007 to September 2018, 180 peripheral lung lesions in 174 patients who underwent B-mode US-guided lung biopsy with coaxial technique at single institution were included in this study. Technical success was defined as the ability to make a diagnosis using the acquired sample with/without an adverse event of pneumothorax. Statistical analyses of prebiopsy characteristics were performed to identify the most important cutpoint and to evaluate the effect on diagnostic accuracy.

resultsOf the 180 lesions (mean size, 37 mm ± 26.2; mean pleural contact length, 38.2 mm ± 34.4), technical success rate was 97.2% (175/180 lesions) and diagnostic accuracy rate was 91.6% (165/180 lesions). Pneumothorax occurred immediately after first puncture for seven of 180 lesions. Classification and regression tree analysis and Fisher's exact test showed the proportion of the pneumothorax immediately after first puncture was higher in lesions with pleural contact length less than 9.78 mm (p = 0.002). No significant difference was shown between the pneumothorax and non-pneumothorax after first puncture in technical success and final diagnosis success rate.

conclusionPleural contact length affects the occurrence of pneumothorax after first puncture of US-guided lung biopsy with coaxial technique.
