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

Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is a safe and effective surgical procedure. Completely minimally invasive operations must be distinguished from hybrid procedures. The VATS can be used for diagnostic and treatment purposes for all oncological and non-oncological diseases of the thoracic organs. The VATS is the preferred surgical procedure for a large number of diseases. Nevertheless, the procedure-specific limitations of VATS must be taken into account in individual cases. In the hands of experienced surgeons complex thoracic surgical procedures can be safely performed. In order to benefit from the advantages of this minimally invasive surgical procedure, integration into a fast-track concept is mandatory.
