The Role of Environmental Exposures on Survival After Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Resection.
Article in Annals of thoracic surgery short reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: Socioeconomic status and pollution exposure have been described as risk factors for poor survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the relationship between these factors is complex and inadequately studied. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between environmental and social factors and their impact on survival after NSCLC resection. Methods: A prospective database for all patients with NSCLC who underwent primary resection from 2006 to 2021 was analyzed. Ambient fine particulate matter (air pollution smaller than 2.5 μm [PM Results: A total of 661 patients who underwent pulmonary resection for NSCLC were evaluated. Black patients had increased levels of community deprivation compared with White patients; however, there was no difference in PM Conclusions: Increased PM
