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

Lung cancer remains a major health challenge despite recent advances in diagnostics and treatment. Surgical resection, particularly in early stages, offers the best chance for cure. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programs have been shown to improve outcomes in various surgical areas. This narrative review summarizes current evidence on the role of prehabilitation within ERAS for lung cancer surgery and presents the organizational model from a high-volume academic thoracic surgery center. Key elements of prehabilitation include smoking cessation, nutritional optimization, physical activity enhancement, and patient education, all delivered by a multidisciplinary team. Despite organizational challenges, preoperative ERAS programs demonstrate benefits for patients and hospitals, supporting their broader implementation in thoracic surgery.
