Oncological feasibility of segmentectomy for inner-located lung cancer.

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
Objective: Oncological feasibility of segmentectomy for internal non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been assessed adequately. We assessed the oncological feasibility of segmentectomy for inner-located NSCLC by investigating surgical margins and patient prognosis after undergoing the procedure. Methods: Of the 3555 patients who underwent resection for lung cancer between 2013 and 2019 at our institution, 659 patients who underwent segmentectomy for clinical stage 0 to stage1A NSCLC were included in this study. Patients were separated into 2 groups according to whether the tumor was in the inner or outer third of the lung area. Clinical characteristics and prognoses were retrospectively compared between the groups. Results: Of the included 659 cases, 183 (27.8%) were inner-located, and 476 (72.2%) had outer-located NSCLC. The surgical margin was significantly shorter in the inner-located group than in the outer group (median, 16 vs 25 mm; Conclusions: For clinical stage 0 to stage1A NSCLC, tumor location in the inner two-thirds of the lung was not associated with prognosis after segmentectomy. Because one of the independent prognostic factors is margin distance, segmentectomy for inner-located NSCLC would be oncologically acceptable when an adequate surgical margin is secured.
