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

Background: Residual lobar shifting after lobectomy promotes effective lung expansion and occasionally better-than-expected preservation of pulmonary function. Our previous study found that patients with lobar shifting (shift group) exhibited considerably better preservation of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV Methods: We analyzed 324 segmentectomies and 839 lobectomies from 2012 to 2024, excluding middle lobe resections. Lobar shifting, evaluated using 3-dimensional computed tomography 6 months after surgery, was categorized based on middle lobe, lingular, and left lower lobe bronchus displacement. Pulmonary function tests were conducted before and 6 months after surgery. FEV Results: Significant differences in FEV Conclusions: Even under conditions favorable for preserving pulmonary function after lobectomy considering lobar shifting, segmentectomy of right S2 and left S1+2 resulted in better postoperative function.
