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
Background: Thoracoscopic surgery is a primary treatment for lung cancer, with lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection being the predominant surgical approaches for invasive lung cancer. While many thoracic surgeons can proficiently perform lobectomy, thorough and standardized lymph node dissection remains challenging. This study aimed to explore a safer and more efficient surgical method for mediastinal lymph node dissection in lung cancer. Methods: A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted, involving 100 patients with right lung cancer who were admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to April 2024 and met the inclusion criteria. These patients were randomly divided into an observation group (tissue pneumoperitoneum technique around lymph nodes group) and a control group (conventional surgery group). Thoracoscopic lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection were performed. Intraoperative and postoperative related indicators were observed to validate the effectiveness and safety of the tissue pneumoperitoneum technique around lymph nodes. Results: The observation group showed a significantly shorter lymph node dissection surgery time compared to the control group, with a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05). The number of lymph nodes dissected in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group, with a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05). Although the observation group had slightly more mediastinal lymph node stations dissected than the control group, the difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). The total drainage volume within three days postoperatively was comparable between the two groups, with no statistically significant difference (p > 0.05). The observation group had shorter chest tube indwelling time and postoperative hospital stay than the control group, with statistically significant differences (p < 0.05). The incidence of surgical complications was similar between the two groups, and there were no perioperative deaths. Conclusion: The tissue pneumoperitoneum technique around lymph nodes is a more efficient method for mediastinal lymph node dissection in lung cancer, demonstrating safety and feasibility, and is worthy of promotion.
