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

Objective: To develop and validate computed tomography (CT)-based prediction models for malignancy in part-solid pulmonary nodules (PSNs). Methods: In this retrospective study, 204 surgically resected PSNs (107 malignant, 97 benign) were analyzed. Clinical data and CT morphological features were evaluated. Vascular patterns were classified into five types (I-V). Quantitative vascular counts (N1-N5, TN) were recorded. Nodules were randomly split into training ( Results: Malignant nodules were associated with older age (59 ± 10 vs. 56 ± 11 years, Conclusion: Qualitative CT assessment of vascular interruption and distortion (types IV and V) significantly improves the prediction of malignancy in PSNs over conventional morphological features alone. A model integrating these vascular patterns offers excellent diagnostic accuracy and clinical utility, potentially aiding in the preoperative risk stratification of PSNs.
