Chest wall resections for non-small cell lung cancer: a literature review.
Review in Journal of thoracic disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background and Objective: The development of early screening for lung cancer has led to improved overall survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the management of NSCLC patients with resectable and potentially resectable chest wall invasion (CWI) requires attention. The purpose of this review is to summarize the role of surgery (chest wall resections) in NSCLC patients with CWI. Methods: A literature search and review from three databases (PubMed, Embase, and ScienceDirect) comprised the last 39 years. This review was focused on the treatment of NSCLC patients with CWI, mainly including the preoperative evaluation, principles of treatment and strategic decision-making, surgical complications, and prognostic factors. Key Content and Findings: Through the collection of relevant literature on NSCLC that invades the chest wall, this narrative review describes the actual role in clinical practice and future developments of chest wall resections. Preoperative treatment requires the multidisciplinary team (MDT) team to conduct accurate clinical staging of the patient and pay attention to the patient's lymph node status and rib invasion status. The successful implementation of chest wall resection and possible chest wall reconstruction requires refined individualized treatment based on the patient's clinical characteristics, supplemented by possible postoperative systemic treatment. Conclusions: Surgery plays an important role in treating NSCLC patients with CWI, and a collaborative, experienced MDT is an essential component of the successful treatment of CWI with lung cancer. In the future, more high-quality clinical research is needed to focus on CWI patients so that patients can receive more effective treatment options and better clinical prognosis.
