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: Pulmonary nodules are the most common manifestation of lung cancer. The detection rate of multiple nodules has been increasing and it is essential to figure out a precise way for localization of the nodules. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, accuracy and safety of electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB)-guided dye marking for localizing multiple ipsilateral nodules compared with computed tomography (CT)-guided lung puncture. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients with multiple nodules in the ipsilateral lung who received preoperative localization [including ENB-guided dye marking (ENBDM) or CT-guided lung puncture] and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery between September 2018 and April 2023. Data were statistically analyzed and visualized using SPSS v25.0 and Microsoft Excel 2019 software. Results: A total of 203 patients were evaluated, among whom 99 underwent ENBDM to localize nodules preoperatively, and 104 were located by CT-guided lung puncture. In terms of localization time, ENB group compared with CT group consumed less time (8.00±4.66 Conclusions: For patients with multiple ipsilateral pulmonary nodules, ENBDM can achieve the similar localization accuracy as CT-guided lung puncture, with shorter localization time and no complications. ENBDM is a safe and effective preoperative localization method for multiple ipsilateral pulmonary nodules.
