Detection of lung cancer in bronchial brushing specimens by FISH.
Article in Expert review of molecular diagnostics, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Bronchial brushing cytology specimens collected during flexible bronchoscopy are an important part of the diagnostic workup of patients with indeterminate pulmonary nodules. Unfortunately, false-negative diagnoses are not uncommon when sampling peripheral nodules, especially small nodules <2 cm in diameter. A number of studies have evaluated different FISH probe sets to increase the detection rate of lung cancer on bronchial brushings and washings. Most studies have shown that FISH with routine cytology increases the sensitivity of lung cancer detection over routine cytology alone, while maintaining high specificity. In this article, the authors review a recently published three-probe FISH assay for the detection of lung cancer in bronchial brushing specimens.
