Pneumonectomy for Primary Lung Tumors and Pulmonary Metastases: A Comprehensive Study of Postoperative Morbidity, Early Mortality, and Preoperative Clinical Prognostic Factors.

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
backgroundPneumonectomy is a major surgical resection that still remains a high-risk operation. The current study aims to investigate perioperative risk factors for postoperative morbidity and early mortality after pneumonectomy for thoracic malignancies.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed all patients who underwent pneumonectomy for thoracic malignancies at our institution between 2014 and 2022. Complications were assessed up to 30 days after the operation. Mortality for any reason was recorded after 30 days and 90 days.
resultsA total of 145 out of 169 patients undergoing pneumonectomy were included in this study. The postoperative 30-day complication rate was 41.4%. The 30-day-mortality was 8.3%, and 90-day-mortality 17.2%. The presence of cardiovascular comorbidities was a risk factor for major cardiopulmonary complications (54.2% vs. 13.2%,
conclusionPneumonectomy for thoracic malignancies remains a high-risk major lung resection with significant postoperative morbidity and mortality. Attention should be paid to the preoperative selection of patients.
