Sublobectomy and lymph node sampling are adequate for patients with invasive lung adenocarcinoma presenting as pure ground glass nodules.

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
purposeIn this study, we aimed to investigate the prognosis of invasive lung adenocarcinoma that manifests as pure ground glass nodules (pGGNs) and confirm the effectiveness of sublobectomy and lymph node sampling in patients with pGGN-featured invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC). MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively enrolled 139 patients with pGGN-featured IAC, who underwent complete resection in two medical institutions between January 2011 and May 2022. Stratification analysis was conducted to ensure balanced baseline characteristics among the patients. The 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates were compared between the groups using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and log-rank test.
resultsThe 5-year OS and DFS rates for patients with IAC presenting as pGGNs after surgery were 96.5% and 100%, respectively. No lymph node metastasis or recurrence was observed in any of the enrolled patients. There was no statistically significant difference in the 5-year OS between patients who underwent lobectomy or sublobectomy, along with lymph node resection or sampling.
conclusionIAC presented as pGGNs exhibited low-grade malignancy and had a relatively good prognosis. Therefore, these patients may be treated with sublobectomy and lymph node sampling.
