Tumour Localisation With ICG-Soaked Embolisation Coils Without Robotic Bronchoscopy: First German Experience.

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
Accurate localisation of small or non-palpable pulmonary lesions is critical for successful minimally invasive resection. Indocyanine green (ICG)-soaked embolisation coil placement is an emerging fluorescence-guided marking method, typically applied to subpleural nodules. We present a four-patient case series-the first in Germany-where ICG-soaked embolisation coils were placed using ultrathin bronchoscopy, a standard cytology brush catheter and cone beam CT (CBCT) guidance, without robotic bronchoscopy. Lesions were confirmed with radial endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), and resection was performed via uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Marking was successful in all cases without complications. One patient underwent dual-coil placement to enable three-dimensional bracketing of a non-subpleural lesion, facilitating precise anatomical resection. Histologies included squamous cell carcinoma (
