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: The combination of three-dimensional printing (3DP) technology and near-infrared fluorescence (NIF) technology using indocyanine green (ICG) has demonstrated significant potential in enhancing surgical margin and safety, as well as simplifying segmental resection. However, there is limited literature available on the integrated use of these techniques. The current study assessed the effectiveness and value of integrating 3DP-NIF technologies in the perioperative outcomes of thoracoscopic segmental lung resection. Methods: This single-center, retrospective study recruited 165 patients with pulmonary nodules who underwent thoracoscopic segmentectomy. Eligible patients were categorized into two groups: the 3DP-NIF group (71 patients) treated with a combination of 3DP-NIF technology, and the three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography with modified inflation-deflation (3D-CTBA-ID) group (94 patients). Following rigorous propensity-score matching (PSM) analysis (1:1 ratio), perioperative outcomes between these two approaches were compared. Results: Sixty-six patients were successfully matched in each group. In the 3D-CTBA-ID group, inadequate visualization of segmental planes was noted in 14 cases, compared to only five cases in the 3DP-NIF group (P=0.03). In addition, the 3DP-NIF group demonstrated a shorter time for clear intersegmental boundary line (IBL) presentation {9 [8, 10] Conclusions: The combination of 3DP-NIF technologies served as a reliable technical safeguard, ensuring the safe and efficient execution of thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy.
