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

We report results of a study utilizing a novel tissue classification method, based on label-free spectral techniques, for the classification of lung cancer histopathological samples on a tissue microarray. The spectral diagnostic method allows reproducible and objective classification of unstained tissue sections. This is accomplished by acquiring infrared data sets containing thousands of spectra, each collected from tissue pixels ∼6 μm on edge; these pixel spectra contain an encoded snapshot of the entire biochemical composition of the pixel area. The hyperspectral data sets are subsequently decoded by methods of multivariate analysis that reveal changes in the biochemical composition between tissue types, and between various stages and states of disease. In this study, a detailed comparison between classical and spectral histopathology is presented, suggesting that spectral histopathology can achieve levels of diagnostic accuracy that is comparable to that of multipanel immunohistochemistry.
