Hypoxic burden and respiratory support escalation within 72 hours after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery pulmonary resection in lung cancer patients with combined fibrotic interstitial lung disease: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2026. 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
Background: Patients with fibrotic interstitial lung disease (fILD) undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for lung cancer are at high risk of postoperative hypoxemia and respiratory deterioration. However, conventional assessment relies mainly on single-point peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO Methods: A total of 120 patients with fILD and lung cancer who underwent VATS pulmonary resection were retrospectively enrolled. Hypoxic burden proportion was defined as cumulative hours with SpO Results: Respiratory support escalation occurred in 24/120 patients (20.0%), including 2/36 (5.6%), 6/44 (13.6%), and 16/40 (40.0%) in the G0, G1, and G2 groups, respectively (P<0.001). Although severe hypoxic burden and continuous hypoxic burden were associated with escalation in unadjusted analysis, these associations were attenuated after adjustment. In the full model, neither severe hypoxic burden [G2 Conclusions: Hypoxic burden was associated with postoperative complications and resource consumption, but its independent association with escalation was attenuated after adjustment. It may be better interpreted as a postoperative process marker rather than a standalone predictor.
