Uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for lung neoplasms with tracheal bronchus: a case report.
Article in Translational cancer research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A 63-year-old woman came to our department complaint that an abnormal shadow was identified by chest computed tomography (CT). CT revealed a 21 mm × 18 mm solid nodule in the right upper lobe of lung, which was suspected to be lung cancer. We also found a bronchus directly arising from the trachea and running into the right upper lobe, which appeared to be tracheal bronchus (TB). Then she underwent the right upper lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection using uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery. During the surgery we found two bronchi which were posterior to the pulmonary hilum running into the right upper lobe. And one of them directly branched from the trachea and was thus confirmed to be TB. TB, which may be related to repeated lung infections, is a rare anomaly. The patient underwent surgery and the pathological diagnosis was lung invasive adenocarcinoma, pT1cN0M0 (stage IA3). Then the patient is being followed up outpatient. By doing chest CT before surgery, uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is safe for lung neoplasms with TB. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of uniportal VATS right upper lobectomy for lung neoplasms with TB.
