Review in Radiologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
significance of lung cancerLung cancer has enormous socioeconomical impact on our society due to its high prevalence and mortality. About 59,700 new cases of lung cancer were forecasted for 2022. TNM SCHEME FOR STAGING: Correct staging is the basis for therapy planning, prognosis estimation, and future analyses. Staging is performed using the TNM scheme from the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC). Involvement of lymph nodes is used to differentiate between stage IIB and IIIC. LYMPH NODE LEVELS FOR LUNG CANCER: Knowledge of the intrathoracic lymph node levels is crucial for the exact classification and its involvement has direct implications on therapy. The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) proposed a unified lymph node map with exact anatomic definitions, which is recommended by the German national lung cancer guideline. The extent of lymph node involvement is stratified into N0-N3. Different metastatic paths are known depending on the location of the primary tumor, but the burden of disease has a greater influence on survival, than the location of metastases. ASSESSING THE SPREAD OF LUNG CANCER: Computed tomography can assess operability of the primary tumor safely in most cases. Invasive procedures to confirm the diagnosis by sampling tissue should be performed after noninvasive diagnostics. PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATION: Systematic lymph node dissection for all patients with non-small cell lung cancer intended for curative resection is recommended in the current German national guideline for lung cancer.
