Correlative Study of Cytological Features in Grading of Invasive Breast Carcinoma.
Article in Journal of cytology. 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
contextFine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a proven diagnostic technique for establishing the benign or malignant character of breast lesions. Several cytological grading systems have been proposed for grading of carcinoma breast, with results similar to histologic grades.
aimsThis study sought to evaluate the prognostic value of FNAC in invasive ductal carcinoma of breast by correlating it with histological grade. SETTINGS AND
designTertiary care hospital, retrospective analytical study. PATIENTS AND
methodsOne hundred and fifty cases of breast carcinoma that underwent modified radical mastectomy consequent to an FNAC diagnosis were included in the study. Robinson's grading system and Elston-Ellis modification of Scarff-Bloom-Richardson grading system were used to assign cytologic and histologic grades, respectively. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: The cytological grades were correlated with the histological grades using χ
resultsA statistically significant association was observed between cytologic and histologic grades (
conclusionsRobinson's cytologic grading system is a reliable grading method on FNAC smears of cases of carcinoma breast. It correlates well with Elston-Ellis modification of Scarff-Bloom-Richardson grade in invasive ductal carcinoma of breast.
