Predicting postoperative lung function using ventilation SPECT/CT in patients with lung cancer.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07436598 (Preoperative Three-Dimensional Virtual Resection Predicts Postoperative Pulmonary Function After Anatomical Resection), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 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.

Abstract
Background: Single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) has the advantage of assessing regional lung function. We aimed to investigate the potential of ventilation (SPECT/CT) for predicting postoperative lung function in patients with lung cancer. Methods: This retrospective study included consecutive patients with lung cancer who underwent lobectomy, preoperative ventilation, and perfusion SPECT/CT between January 2020 and December 2021. The percentage of predicted postoperative forced expiratory volume in 1 s (ppoFEV Results: Among the 47 patients, 29 men and 18 women aged 67.5±9.6 years were included. Moreover, 46 ventilation and 41 perfusion SPECT/CT scans were obtained. The pulmonary function on ventilation SPECT/CT strongly correlated with perfusion SPECT/CT (correlation coefficient r=0.939 for ppoFEV Conclusions: Ventilation SPECT/CT was comparable to perfusion SPECT/CT in predicting postoperative lung function.
