Clinical Challenges and Management Strategies in Pulmonary Large-Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pulmonary large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) is a rare but aggressive malignancy of the lung. Its nonspecific presentation and propensity for severe disease at the time of diagnosis create challenges in treatment. We report a case of an asymptomatic 61-year-old female who was incidentally found to have a pulmonary nodule after a fall. Upon further workup, she was found to have an aggressive LCNEC. The patient underwent a robotic-assisted left upper lobectomy, which was complicated by left lower lobe bronchus kinking and post-obstructive atelectasis, warranting further management by thoracic surgery. The patient additionally underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), open thoracotomy, pneumopexy, and bronchial stenting. This case highlights the need for strategies for early detection in at-risk populations. A multidisciplinary approach, which may involve both medical and surgical subspecialties, is essential in the management of this complex disease from the time of diagnosis to follow-up postoperatively to achieve the best clinical outcome.
