Thoracoscopic two-port treatment of two extralobar pulmonary sequestrations in the left thoracic cavity of a child: a case report.

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
Reports of bronchopulmonary sequestration in two or more locations within the ipsilateral thorax in children are rare. To date, only a few clinical reports have described thoracoscopic two-port treatment for external lobe bronchopulmonary sequestration. We performed thoracoscopic two-port surgery on a 7-month-old girl and identified two abnormal masses in the left thoracic cavity: one located in the upper hilum of the lung and the other on the surface of the lower diaphragm. Both masses were resected using two-aperture thoracoscopic surgery and were pathologically confirmed as extralobar bronchopulmonary sequestrations. Preoperative computed tomography (CT) only detected the lesions in the upper hilum of the lung, indicating that CT alone is insufficient to achieve a comprehensive and accurate diagnosis of the disease in similar cases. Therefore, the thoracoscopic two-port technique can better diagnose and treat these diseases.
