Computed Tomography-Guided Localization and Extended Segmentectomy for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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: Lung cancer is one of the most devastating cancers. Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) can detect lung cancer at an early stage of the disease when a minimally invasive surgical procedure using video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is the best strategy. Herein, we discuss the treatment of deep lung tumors between segments or lesions located near the margin of a segment. Patients and Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted from January 2013 to January 2020 using the National Taiwan University Hospital data bank. We included early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who underwent lung surgery and screened out those who received CT-guided localization for extended segmentectomy. Outcome measurements were safety margin, complication rate, and postoperative course. Results: During the study period, 68 patients with early-stage NSCLC received CT-guided localization followed by extended segmentectomy. The mean surgery time was 92.1 ± 30.3 min, and the mean blood loss was 32.8 mL. Mean drainage time was 2.3 ± 1 days, and the total hospital stay was 4.9 ± 1.1 days. Pathological reports showed tumor-free resection margins >2 cm. Sixty-one patients had adenocarcinoma at stage IA and two patients at stage IB. One patient had squamous cell carcinoma at stage IA. Conclusion: CT-guided localization followed by extended segmentectomy allows lung volume preservation with clean safety margins and good clinical outcomes.
