Benign and malignant pulmonary part-solid nodules: differentiation via thin-section computed tomography.
Article in Quantitative imaging in medicine and surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
backgroundPulmonary part-solid nodules (PSNs) reportedly have a high possibility of malignancy, while benign PSNs are common. This study aimed to reveal the differences between benign and malignant PSNs by comparing their thin-section computed tomography (CT) features.
methodsPatients with PSNs confirmed by postoperative pathological examination or follow-up (at the same period) were retrospectively enrolled from March 2016 to January 2020. The clinical data of patients and CT features of benign and malignant PSNs were reviewed and compared. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed to reveal the predictors of malignant PSNs.
resultsA total of 119 PSNs in 117 patients [age (mean ± standard deviation), 56±11 years; 70 women] were evaluated. Of the 119 PSNs, 44 (37.0%) were benign, and 75 (63.0%) were malignant (12 adenocarcinomas
conclusionsWell-defined and lobulated PSNs with irregular and scattered solid components are highly likely to be malignant.
