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

Background: Studies have analyzed the simplified branching pattern of peripheral segmental veins and developed a standardized approach for intersegmental vein identification in the right upper lobe (RUL). However, the identification approach of intersubsegmental veins has not been reported. This study aimed to supplement the identification approach of intersubsegmental veins and the classification pattern of peripheral segmental veins by using three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography (3D-CTBA). Materials and methods: A total of 600 patients with ground glass opacity (GGO) who had undergone 3D-CTBA preoperatively at Hebei General Hospital between September 2020 and September 2022 were used for the retrospective study. We reviewed the anatomical variations of RUL veins in these patients using 3D-CTBA images. Results: According to the anatomical position, the peripheral segmental veins structures of RUL were classified into five categories: "Iab type of anterior with central vein" (256/600, 42.7%), "Ib type of anterior with central vein" (166/600, 27.7%), "Central vein type" (38/600, 6.3%), "Anterior vein type" (81/600, 13.5%), "Right top pulmonary vein type" (57/600, 9.5%). The approach for intersegmental vein and intersubsegmental veins identification was divided into five types: anterior approach, posterobronchial approach, central vein approach, V Conclusions: The classification pattern of peripheral segmental veins should find wide application. Further, approaches identifying intersegmental veins and intersubsegmental veins may help thoracic surgeons perform safe and accurate RUL segmentectomy.
