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

With a growing number of predictive biomarkers that have emerged in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), there has been a paradigm shift in the management of these patients. Of the various predictive biomarker testing methods, immunohistochemistry (IHC) is the most widely available, cost-effective, and commonly used methods. However, most predictive IHC assays are validated primarily on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) histologic tissue samples and translating these assays to cytologic specimens requires additional and rigorous validation. This is part due to the lack of standardized processing protocols in cytology resulting in a variety of preanalytic variables that can impact the antigenicity of antibodies used for predictive biomarker testing. The review article discusses the various preanalytical and analytical factors that impact immunocytochemistry (ICC) in cytologic specimens and summarizes the current published literature on
