Risk factors for late-onset pulmonary fistula after pulmonary segmentectomy.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2023. 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
Background: Late-onset pulmonary fistula (LOPF) is a well-described complication after segmentectomy, but the precise incidence and risk factors are still unclear. We aimed to determine the incidence of, and risk factors for, LOPF development after segmentectomy. Methods: A single-institution retrospective study was performed. A total of 396 patients who underwent segmentectomy were enrolled. Perioperative data were analyzed to identify the risk factors for LOPF requiring readmission according to univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: The overall morbidity rate was 19.4%. The incidence rates of prolonged air leak (PAL) in the early phase and LOPF in the late phase were 6.3% (25/396) and 4.5% (18/396), respectively. The most common surgical procedures with LOPF development were segmentectomy of the upper-division (n=6) and S Conclusions: Segmentectomy with CSFS is an independent risk factor for LOPF development. Careful postoperative follow up and rapid treatment are necessary to avoid empyema.
