Diagnostic approach in parenchymal lung diseases: transbronchial lung biopsy or cryobiopsy?

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
Background/aim: Diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases requires a multidisciplinary approach, and a gold standard for histological diagnosis is open lung biopsy. Transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) and in recent years an alternative method, cryobiopsy (TBLC), are used for the diagnosis of parenchymal lung lesions. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of concomitant conventional TBLB and TBLC. Materials and methods: A total of 82 patients who underwent TBLC for diagnosis of diffuse parenchymal lung diseases at Dr. Suat Seren Chest Diseases and Surgery Training and Research Hospital between 2015 and 2018 were screened retrospectively and included in the study. Of the patients, 53.7% (n: 44) were male, and 46.4% (n:38) of them were female. The mean age was 58.37 (±9.33) years. First TBLB and then TBLC were performed to all patients in the same session and their diagnostic performances were compared. Results: Although both procedures were done in the same session, 45 patients (54.9%) were diagnosed with TBLB and 75 patients (91.5%) were diagnosed with TBLC (P ˂ 0.001). Hemorrhage was observed in 39 patients (47.6%), but only one had a massive hemorrhage. Pneumothorax was observed in 6 patients (7.3%) and none of them required tube drainage. Conclusion: Transbronchial lung cryobiopsy is a promising technique for the diagnosis of parenchymal lung diseases compared to transbronchial lung biopsy.
