Case report of non-tracheal intubation-an alternative for postpneumonectomy patients undergoing contralateral pulmonary resection.
Article in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundSurgery on the contralateral or other lungs after pneumonectomy on one side is highly challenging and complex. It is critical to creating conditions for fluent surgical maneuvers while ensuring adequate ventilation for a patient during such an operation in the same chest cavity that appears incompatible. CASE PRESENTATION: We have reported herein the case of a patient who, following a left pneumonectomy, underwent a right upper pulmonary nodule wedge resection via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery without requiring endotracheal intubation. We managed ventilation with a laryngeal mask airway under general anesthesia combined with a thoracic epidural block. The diseased lobe collapsed well for the surgical procedure during VATS without hypoxia, after which the resection was safely performed.
conclusionsNon-tracheal intubation anesthesia can be a potentially attractive alternative for patients undergoing contralateral pulmonary resection after pneumonectomy.
