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

Although lungs are one of the most frequent sites of metastasis for malignant tumors, little has been reported about the value of bronchoscopy for lung metastases presenting with peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs). This retrospective cohort study investigated the diagnostic value of bronchoscopy for peripheral metastatic lung tumors. Consecutive patients who underwent diagnostic bronchoscopy with radial endobronchial ultrasound for PPLs and were finally diagnosed with metastatic lung tumors from April 2012 to March 2019 were included. We analyzed 235 PPLs, with a median size of 18.8 mm. The overall diagnostic yield was 76.6%. In a multivariable analysis, large lesion size (>20.0 mm vs. <20.0 mm: 87.6% vs. 67.7%,
