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

Objective: To evaluate the application of CT postprocessing reconstruction technique in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant solitary pulmonary nodules and analysis of risk factors. Methods: A total of 150 solitary pulmonary nodules (SPN) patients admitted to our hospital from January 2020 to January 2022 were selected and divided into the benign SPN group ( Results: The pathological results of this study showed that there were 64 cases with benign SPN and 86 cases with malignant SPN. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive rate, and negative predictive rate of CT postprocessing reconstruction technology in diagnosing malignant SPN were 73.44%, 89.53%, 82.67%, 83.39%, and 81.91%, respectively, which were higher than 56.25%, 65.12%, 61.33%, 54.55%, and 66.67% of CT plain scan, and the difference was statistically significant ( Conclusion: CT postprocessing reconstruction technique has high diagnostic value in the differentiation of benign and malignant SPN, age ≥ 60 years, nodule diameter ≥ 15 mm, lobulation signs, burr signs, ground-glass components, and noncalcification components are independent risk factors for malignant SPN.
