Advances in the localization of pulmonary nodules: a comprehensive review.
Review in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In recent years, with the widespread use of chest CT, the detection rate of pulmonary nodules has significantly increased (Abtin and Brown, J Clin Oncol 31:1002-8, 2013). Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is the most commonly used method for suspected malignant nodules. However, for nodules with a diameter less than 1 cm, or located more than 1.5 cm from the pleural edge, especially ground-glass nodules, it is challenging to achieve precise intraoperative localization by manual palpation (Ciriaco et al., Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 25:429-33, 2004). Therefore, preoperative accurate localization of such nodules becomes a necessary condition for precise resection. This article provides a comprehensive review and analysis of the research progress in pulmonary nodule localization, focusing on four major localization techniques: Percutaneous puncture-assisted localization, Bronchoscopic preoperative pulmonary nodule localization, 3D Printing-Assisted Localization, and intraoperative ultrasound-guided pulmonary nodule localization.
