Video-assisted thoracic surgery for spontaneous pneumothorax under two-lung ventilation and single-lumen endotracheal tube intubation.

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: This study investigated the feasibility of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) performed under two-lung ventilation (TLV) and single-lumen endotracheal tube (SLET) intubation in patients with spontaneous pneumothorax. Methods: From January 2016 to December 2019, 344 patients who underwent VATS with spontaneous pneumothorax, whether primary or secondary, were enrolled. The surgery was performed through TLV using SLET intubation or one-lung ventilation (OLV) using double-lumen endotracheal tube (DLET) intubation. Patient data were collected retrospectively from medical records and compared with an emphasis on the time required for anesthesia and surgery. Results: The average anesthesia time was 72.6±17.8 min for TLV and 89.9±24.3 min for OLV (P<0.001). The average operating time was 42.1±16.2 min for TLV and 54.7±23.8 min for OLV (P<0.001). The average time from the onset of anesthesia to incision was 23.6±7.0 min for TLV and 27.6±9.5 min for OLV (P<0.001). There was no case of conversion to OLV using DLET intubation during surgery with TLV using SLET intubation. Removal of the chest tube took 1.6±1.1 days for the TLV group and 2.3±3.6 days for the OLV group (P=0.017). Patients were discharged at 2.7±1.2 days after surgery for the TLV group and 3.2±2.3 days after surgery for the OLV group (P=0.009). Conclusions: TLV using SLET intubation could shorten the time required for anesthesia-related procedures and surgery. In addition, it can be a beneficial surgical and anesthetic option for pneumothorax.
