Imaging Features of Lung Ground-Glass Nodules and Their Correlation With Biological Behavior.
Review in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Ground-glass nodules (GGNs) in the lungs are common and clinically significant manifestations in pulmonary imaging, drawing significant attention because of their potential for malignant transformation. With the popularization of low-dose CT screening, the detection rate of GGNs has significantly increased; however, their imaging characteristics are complex and diverse, posing challenges for clinical diagnosis and management. Current research mainly focuses on the imaging features of GGNs, such as size, shape, edge characteristics, and dynamic changes, gradually revealing their intrinsic connections with pathological types and molecular biological markers. However, there are still controversies and gaps in research regarding the specific correlations between imaging features, tumor biological behavior, and prognosis. This paper conducts a literature search using the PubMed/MEDLINE database with keywords including GGO, alveolar wall shadows, part-solid nodules, and subsolid nodules to find relevant studies. The terms used include GGO, GGN, and alveolar wall nodules. It analyzes the latest research progress on the imaging characteristics of lung GGNs and their biological behavior, systematically exploring their application value in pathological typing, molecular marker expression, and clinical prognosis assessment. The aim is to provide scientific evidence for clinical risk stratification, individualized treatment, and follow-up strategy formulation, thereby promoting the early diagnosis and precise treatment of lung cancer.
