Perioperative respiratory physiotherapy in patients with thoracic tumors: Summary of best evidence and recommendations.
Review in Asia-Pacific journal of oncology nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: To summarize the best evidence-based perioperative respiratory physiotherapy strategies for patients with thoracic tumors and to provide a reference for clinical practice. Methods: The review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A systematic search of evidence on the perioperative respiratory physiotherapy in patients with thoracic tumors was performed in computerized decision systems, guideline websites, professional association websites, and comprehensive databases from the date of creation to 30 April 2024. The types of evidence included were clinical decisions, guidelines, expert consensuses, evidence summaries, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. Two independent researchers evaluated the quality of the literature and extracted and summarized the included evidence. Results: A total of 24 articles were included for analysis, comprising one clinical decision, three guidelines, four expert consensuses, two evidence summaries, and 14 systematic reviews. The overall quality of the literature was high. Thirty-seven pieces of evidence were summarized, focusing on four areas: assessment, preoperative respiratory physiotherapy strategies, postoperative respiratory physiotherapy strategies, and home-based management. Conclusions: This study synthesizes the best evidence on implementing perioperative respiratory physiotherapy in patients with thoracic tumors, providing a reference for clinical practice. More comprehensive and high-quality guidance documents focused on home-based management of respiratory physiotherapy are needed. Systematic review registration: This study was registered at the Fudan University Centre for Evidence-based Nursing (Registration No. ES20245066).
