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

Lung cancers associated with cystic airspaces (LCCAs) are a rare and relatively novel concept analyzed in various case reports and retrospective studies. In this review, it was our aim to investigate the morphologic, imaging, and clinicopathologic characteristics of this entity, as well as its natural course in light of the current literature. Literature search including the years 2000-2022 was conducted in PubMed. We analyzed the definition, morphological classification, pathogenesis and histopathology, imaging and clinical features, differential diagnosis and natural course and prognosis of LCCAs. LCCAs are increasingly being identified as missed or delayed diagnoses in lung cancer screening programs. Early recognition and intervention of this entity when cyst wall thickening or solid components appear can potentially improve outcomes. Nevertheless, the prognosis and survival of these patients are still poorly understood due to limited data, and further research is needed to better understand the behavior of these lesions and propose management guidelines.
