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
introductionCurrently, different methods and materials are used to localize pulmonary nodules (PNs) but most are used only to locate a single pulmonary nodule (PN).
aimTo evaluate the feasibility and safety of simultaneously localizing multiple PNs with a coil under computed tomography (CT) guidance before video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). MATERIAL AND
methodsA total of 166 patients underwent VATS preoperative-assisted localization of pulmonary nodules in our hospital in the period from January 2, 2020 to July 7, 2020, namely 40 patients in the multiple-PN-simultaneous-localization group (A) and 126 patients in the single-PN-localization group (B). We compared the epidemiology, localization procedure, and complications between the two groups.
resultsThe technical success rates in group A and Group B were 96.5% and 97.6%, respectively, with no statistical difference (p = 0.623). In group A, the success rate of the first nodule localization was 100%, and the subsequent nodule localization success rate was 93.3%; 3 patients had one nodule localization failure owing to pneumothorax after the first nodule localization. The number of pleural punctures was higher in group A than in group B (p < 0.001), and the localization procedure time was longer than in group B (p < 0.001). Regarding complications, the pneumothorax rate in group A was higher than that in group B (p < 0.001), and the bleeding rate was higher than that in group B (p < 0.001). However, pneumothorax and bleeding in group A did not require special treatment.
conclusionsThe incidence of pneumothorax and pulmonary hemorrhage with simultaneous coil localization of multiple PNs was higher than that with localization of a single PN, but this method was safe and feasible.
