FDG uptake of pulmonary lesions in synchronous primary lung cancers and lung metastases.

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
Purpose: In lung cancer patients, the distinction between synchronous primary lung cancer and intrapulmonary metastasis can be challenging. The intensity of FDG uptake in pulmonary lesions has been shown to be potentially useful in classifying synchronous lung cancer. The aim of this retrospective study is to investigate the effectiveness of FDG uptake in differentiating metastases from synchronous primary lesions in the setting of lung cancer. Methods: Consecutive patients with primary lung cancer with two or more malignant lung lesions referred for ( Results: 94 patients were included for analysis, divided into synchronous ( Conclusion: Differences in FDG uptake intensity among multiple synchronously presenting malignant nodules may be helpful to distinguish second primary lung tumours from metastatic spread.
