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

introductionDiagnosis of lung nodules is still under investigation. We use computed tomography scans and positron emission tomography in order to identify their origin. PATIENTS AND

methodsIn our retrospective study, we included 248 patients with a single lung nodule or multiple lung nodules of size ≥1 cm. We used a radial-endobronchial ultrasound and a C-Arm. We used a 1.1 mm cryoprobe versus a 22G needle vs. forceps/brush. We compared the sample size of each biopsy method with the number of cell-block slices.

resultsCentral lesions indifferent to the method provided the same mean number of cell-block slices (0.04933-0.02410). Cryobiopsies provide less sample size for peripheral lesions due to the higher incidence of pneumothorax (0.04700-0.02296).

conclusionThe larger the lesion ≥2 cm, and central, more cell-blocks are produced indifferent to the biopsy method (0.13386-0.02939). The time of the procedure was observed to be less when the C-Arm was used as an additional navigation tool (0.14854-0.00089).
