Virtual-assisted lung mapping using dual staining with indocyanine green and indigo carmine enhanced marking detectability.
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 10 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
Background: Virtual-assisted lung mapping (VAL-MAP) is a preoperative bronchoscopic multispot dye-marking procedure to facilitate sublobar lung resection for unidentifiable lung nodules. To increase detectable markings, we performed VAL-MAP using dual staining (VAL-MAP DS) with indocyanine green (ICG) and indigo carmine. This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the modified technique. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients who underwent VAL-MAP DS. Twenty patients with 27 lesions underwent 72 VAL-MAP DS markings. We investigated the overall detectable marking rate, visible marking rate, successful resection rate, and complications. Results: The overall detectable marking rate, thanks to both ICG and indigo carmine, tended to be higher than the indigo carmine visible marking rate (95.7% Conclusions: VAL-MAP DS is likely be efficacious and safe in enhancing the detectability of markings. This bronchoscopic technique should be considered as one of the optimal preoperative marking methods in thoracic surgery.
