Augmented fluoroscopy-guided dye localization for small pulmonary nodules in hybrid operating room: intrathoracic stamping versus transbronchial marking.

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
purposeWe developed a novel augmented fluoroscopy-guided intrathoracic stamping technique for localizing small pulmonary nodules in the hybrid operating room. We conducted an observational study to investigate the feasibility of this technique and retrospectively compared two augmented fluoroscopy-guided approaches: intrathoracic and transbronchial.
methodsFrom August 2020 to March 2023, consecutive patients underwent single-stage augmented fluoroscopy-guided localization under general anaesthesia. This included intrathoracic stamping and bronchoscopic lung marking, followed by thoracoscopic resection in a hybrid operating room. Comparative analyses were performed between the two groups.
resultsThe data of 50 patients in the intrathoracic stamping and 67 patients in the bronchoscopic lung marking groups were analysed. No significant difference was noted in demographic data between the groups, except a larger lesion depth in the bronchoscopic lung marking group (14.7 ± 11.7 vs 11.0 ± 5.8 mm, p = 0.029). Dye localization was successfully performed in 49 intrathoracic stamping group patients (98.0%) and 67 bronchoscopic lung marking group patients (100%). No major procedure-related complications occurred in either group; however, the time flow (total anaesthesia time/global operating room time) was longer, and the radiation exposure (fluoroscopy duration/total dose area product) was larger in the bronchoscopic lung marking group.
conclusionsAugmented fluoroscopic stamping localization under intubated general anaesthesia is feasible and safe, providing an alternative with less global operating room time and lower radiation exposure for image-guided thoracoscopic surgery in the hybrid operating room.
