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
Objectives: Tumors invading the tracheobronchial angle or carina have long presented a challenge due to the complexity of airway reconstruction and management; thus, few medical centers have developed experience with this type of surgery. In this report, we review our experience with Sleeve Pneumonectomy (SP) and analyze both operative risks and outcomes. Materials and Methods: A retrospective review identified 34 patients who underwent SP: 19 underwent salvage SP and 15 underwent non-salvage SP. Salvage surgery was performed for recurrent lung cancer after chemoradiotherapy and could be considered if there were no other therapeutic options or in the presence of urgent symptoms, such as hemoptysis, obstructive pneumonia, superior vena cava syndrome, or tracheoesophageal fistula.The perioperative morbidity and oncological outcomes of salvage and non-salvage SP were analyzed. Results: Most cases were of lung cancer, whereas salvage SP included one case of SVC syndrome due to metastasis of colon cancer and one case of hemoptysis due to metastasis of leiomyosarcoma. Complications occurred in 47% of the non-salvage SP cases and 53% of the salvage SP cases. The 30-day mortality rates were zero in the non-salvage cases and 11% in the salvage cases. The 90-day mortality rates were 20% and 16% in the non-salvage and salvage groups, respectively. Conclusions: The salvage of SP after chemoradiotherapy or in the presence of urgent symptoms is feasible. We believe that it can be an option that improves quality of life (QOL) through longer desease-free survival (DFS) and alleviation of symptoms, rather than waiting for tumor growth progression and exacerbation of symptoms.
