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

backgroundIn this paper, a rare case is reported, where the patient is a 74-year-old man. He suffered from recurrent pneumothorax within half a year and experienced a relapse after receiving conservative treatments. CASE PRESENTATION: Diagnostic workup revealed a cystic lesion in the right middle lobe, which has been interpreted as a bulla during the initial chest CT scan. Due to recurrent pneumothorax and poor response to the conservative treatments, the patient underwent bullectomy and pleurodesis. The pathology showed that the wall of the cystic lesion was invasive adenocarcinoma.

conclusionsThis case highlights the importance of monitoring cystic lesions in the lungs, especially in patients with a history of smoking and emphysema.
