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

In recent years, cytopathology has established itself as an independent diagnostic modality to guide clinical management in many different settings. The application of molecular techniques to cytological samples to identify prognostic and predictive biomarkers has played a crucial role in achieving this goal. While earlier studies have demonstrated that single biomarker testing is feasible on cytological samples, currently, this provides only limited and increasingly insufficient information in an era where an increasing number of biomarkers are required to guide patient care. More recently, multigene mutational assays, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), have gained popularity because of their ability to provide genomic information on multiple genes. The cytopathologist plays a key role in ensuring success of NGS in cytological samples by influencing the pre-analytical steps, optimizing preparation types and adequacy requirement in terms of cellularity and tumor fraction, and ensuring optimal nucleic acid extraction for DNA input requirements. General principles of the role and potential of NGS in molecular cytopathology in the universal healthcare (UHC) European environment and examples of principal clinical applications were discussed in the workshop that took place at the 30th European Congress of Pathology in Bilbao, European Society of Pathology, whose content is here comprehensively described.
