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
backgroundAnatomical abnormalities in the pulmonary vessels have long aroused great interest among thoracic surgeons, and numerous variations of pulmonary vessels have been reported. Heterotaxy syndrome is an anatomical abnormality in which typically asymmetrical organs, including the lungs, develop symmetrically. We report the case of a 71-year-old man with heterotaxy syndrome undergoing radical lobectomy in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. CASE PRESENTATION: Computed tomography (CT) revealed an irregular nodule 25 mm in diameter in the right middle lobe. Two months later, at his first visit to our University Hospital, CT revealed a rapidly growing tumor 60 mm in diameter. In addition, three-dimensional (3D) CT revealed the upper and middle lobar bronchi forming a common trunk with the mediastinal type of the right pulmonary artery (PA). The patient underwent video-assisted right middle lobectomy + systematic complete hilar and mediastinal lymph node dissection. The interlobar fissure between the right upper and middle lobes was incomplete, and the common trunk formed by the upper-middle bronchus emerged from an area between the right PA (A
