Surgical outcomes after multiple segmentectomy: a cohort study.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundSegmentectomy is now a common treatment option for both lung cancer and metastatic lung tumors with increasing data and evidence. However, data on multiple segmentectomy of different lobes are scarce. Our objective was to clarify the clinicopathological features of multiple segmentectomy.
methodsWe reviewed patients who underwent segmentectomy between January 2010 and December 2019 at Gunma University Hospital. Multiple segmentectomy was defined as segmentectomy of different lobes during the same operation, in contrast to single segmentectomy, which was defined as segmentectomy of a single lobe. Clinicopathologic, operative, and postoperative results were compared between multiple segmentectomy and single segmentectomy.
resultsThere were 324 patients who underwent single segmentectomy and 11 patients (12 cases) who underwent multiple segmentectomy. Multiple segmentectomy was mostly performed for treatment of metastatic lesions rather than lung cancer. The median number of resected segments was 1 (range, 1-5) in the single segmentectomy group and 3 (range, 2-4) in the multiple segmentectomy group. The median number of resected lung lesions was 3.5 in the multiple segmentectomy group. Multiple segmentectomy was associated with longer operative time, more bleeding, and longer drainage period and postoperative stay than the single segmentectomy group. There were no significant differences in severe complications as well as 30- and 90-day mortality.
conclusionsMultiple segmentectomy is a lung-preserving procedure that can be considered for patients with multiple lung lesions and has feasible postoperative outcomes.
