Case Report: Multiple primary bilateral lung benign notochord cell tumors combined with sacral tumors.

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
Benign notochord cell tumor (BNCT) in the bilateral lungs is exceedingly rare. This report details a case of a male patient diagnosed with primary bilateral lung BNCTs and concurrent sacral tumors. As part of a routine health check-up, a chest CT revealed suspicious nodules in both lungs. We performed a thoracoscopic wedge resection of the nodules on him. The postoperative pathological findings combined with CT and clinical manifestations confirmed BNCT. Post-operatively, considering that BNCT commonly occurs in the axial skeleton, we conducted an examination of the spine. Spinal CT and MRI revealed suspicious sacral lesions in the S3 to S5 vertebrae, necessitating further investigation and continuous follow-up monitoring. The simultaneous occurrence of primary multifocal pulmonary BNCTs coexisting with sacral tumors has never been reported before. Fully taking into account potential associations with other diseases, careful follow-up and a comprehensive diagnostic approach are essential for patients with pulmonary nodules.
