A lymph node mediastinal foreign body reaction mimicking nodal metastasis: A case series.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Introduction: In the last decades, many haemostatic substances included oxidized cellulose topically applied have been used during surgery and their use have become a common practice. Oxidized cellulose (OC) is one of the most used haemostatic substances. However, different studies have shown the persistence of OC deposits after surgical procedures that may simulate recurrent malignancies and abscesses. We present a case series of patients with enlarged on CT and PET-FDG positive lymphadenopathies due to foreign body inflammatory reaction to OC after lung surgery for pulmonary malignancies. Methods: Retrospective chart review of patients from 2021 to 2022 who underwent EBUS-TBNA for the characterization of hilar and/or mediastinal lymphadenopathies and a histopathological diagnosis of foreign body inflammatory reaction to OC. Results: Conclusion: In patients who underwent surgery for lung cancer, especially within few months, the development of lymph node foreign body reaction due to surgical material retention should always be considered.
