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

introductionAlthough pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas (PAVFs) have often been treated with embolization, surgical approaches including segmentectomy might also play a curative role. Furthermore, a near-infrared fluorescent (NIF) imaging has been widely used as an assisting tool during surgery and has been useful for identifying the intersegmental plane during pulmonary segmentectomy. We describe a thoracoscopic right S CASE PRESENTATION: A 66-year-old woman presented with a PAVF consisting of dilated feeding and draining vessels (A

conclusionsSegmentectomy can contribute to a curative resection of PAVF, bronchial CT simulation helps to recognize the variant bronchus, and NIF imaging can identify not only the intersegmental plane but also the target segmental bronchus for division in PAVF cases with aberrant bronchus requiring thoracoscopic segmentectomy.
