1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: This retrospective study aims to assess the efficacy of the combined application of electromagnetic navigation (EMN) and porcine fibrin sealant (PFS) in the microwave ablation (MWA) treatment of lung tumors. Material and methods: In our department from January 2022 to August 2023, 73 patients underwent MWA under standard computed tomography (CT) guidance (CT group) or CT guidance with additional application of EMN and PFS (CT-EMN-PFS group), respectively. The basic data of patients were recorded and analyzed using the Student's Results: Forty-seven patients underwent standard CT-guided MWA, meanwhile the remaining 26 patients underwent CT-guided MWA with combined application of EMN and PFS. The patients with lesions close to the bronchi or interlobar fissures, and underlying emphysema had a higher risk of pneumothorax, the corresponding odds ratio (OR) was 23.290 ( Conclusion: The combined application of EMN and PFS demonstrates for the first time that there is a lower incidence rate of pneumothorax and significantly less radiation exposure during the MWA of the lung tumors.
