Which bioabsorbable sheet is optimal for combined application with fibrin sealant against alveolar air leakage?
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 3 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: There are few basic comparative data on the sealing effect of various bioabsorbable sheets in combination with fibrin sealant (FS), which is a more effective tool for the control of alveolar air leakage than the single use of FS alone. The objective of this study was to investigate which bioabsorbable sheet had the best sealing effect against alveolar air leakage when used in combination with FS, in terms of material quality, weaving pattern, and/or thickness. Methods: Standardized 20 mm × 30 mm pleural defects were covered with three pieces of the following sheets using the Rub + Soak B technique in an Results: In Experiment 1, SBBP was significantly higher in Group 1 than in Group 3. The SBBP in Group 2 was significantly higher than that in Group 3. In Experiment 2, SBBP in Group 4 was significantly lower than that in Groups 1, 5, and 6. In Experiment 3, SBBP in Group 7 was significantly lower than that in Groups 8 and 9. Conclusions: Regarding the sheet thickness of PGA felt, the 0.15 mm was the most effective. Regarding the material quality, the ORC was the least suitable. TachoSil
