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

Pulmonary sclerosing pneumocytomas are benign tumors. These tumors are often found incidentally and can be challenging to distinguish from lung malignancies. Here, we describe the case of a 31-year-old woman who presented with an incidental finding of a lung nodule in the lingula. She was asymptomatic and had no history of cancer. Positron emission tomography showed [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in the nodule but no FDG-avid mediastinal lymphadenopathy. In view of these findings, a bronchoscopy was performed, and biopsy samples were taken. The final pathological diagnosis revealed a sclerosing pneumocytoma.
