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
The purpose of this study is to evaluate left atrial function using cine-magnetic resonance imaging (cine-MRI) in patients with pulmonary vein stump thrombus (PVST) after left upper lobectomy (LUL). The study population comprised 91 patients (30 with PVST and 61 without PVST) who underwent LUL for pulmonary lesions and evaluation by cine-MRI. Left atrial functional parameters were evaluated and compared between patients with and without the development of PVST after LUL using the Mann-Whitney U test. The diagnostic capabilities of these parameters for predicting PVST development were assessed using receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Clinical and left atrial functional parameters were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression models to determine predictors of PVST. Left atrial end-systolic volume (LAESV), left atrial end-diastolic volume (LAEDV), LAESV index (LAESVI), and LAEDV index (LAEDVI) were significantly greater in patients who developed PVST than in those without PVST (p = 0.009, < 0.001, 0.004, and < 0.001, respectively). Left atrial ejection fraction (LAEF) was significantly lower in patients who developed PVST than in those without PVST (p < 0.001). The area under the ROC curve for predicting PVST was 0.668, 0.769, 0.688, 0.792, and 0.803 for LAESV, LAEDV, LAESVI, LAEDVI, and LAEF, respectively. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, only LAEF was identified as an independent predictor of PVST (OR 0.896; 95% CI 0.846-0.950). In conclusion, left atrial enlargement and left atrial dysfunction were associated with the development of PVST after LUL.
