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

Compared to other European and non-European countries the benefits of cytopathology for the diagnosis of many tumors is still underestimated in Germany for traditional reasons. Cytological methods provide excellent material from many organs for morphological, immunochemical and molecular examinations so that a definitive diagnosis is cytologically possible in many cases and the number of exploratory surgical operations could therefore be reduced. Improvements in this deplorable situation will only be possible if a standardized training period in cytology is consistently included in the training of general pathologists. This requires organizational and infrastructural changes within the institutes of pathology. In this respect, the university institutes as important training institutions should lead the way.
