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

Scoliotic deformity represents a serious spinal disorder that influences the locomotive and cardiopulmonary systems. Some patients with severe scoliosis and end-stage lung disease are therefore denied lung transplantation. In patients with scoliosis considering lung transplantation, size match, straight back syndrome, delayed chest closure and bronchial stenosis are key issues clinicians should evaluate. Therefore, it is vital to determine donor-recipient size matches very precisely. Chest opening is a routine intraoperative primary therapeutic procedure after lung transplantation in unstable patients with oversized transplanted lungs. Postoperative bronchial stenosis occurs predominantly on the right side and is usually handled through interventional bronchoscopy and the insertion of stents. This report describes the complex case of a patient with scoliosis who underwent lobar transplantation in our center.
