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

objectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of rapid on-site cytological evaluation (ROSE) in determining specimen adequacy and diagnostic accuracy in the interventional diagnosis of lung lesions.

methodsThis retrospective study included 127 consecutive cases of lung lesions, which were sampled by bronchoscopy or transthoracic fine needle aspiration, and diagnosed on ROSE followed by histopathology. ROSE was performed by a trained pulmonologist and the diagnosis of ROSE was compared with the final diagnosis.

resultsThe sensitivity of ROSE in determining adequacy of specimens was 97.5% and specificity in determining inadequacy was 85.7%. The diagnostic efficacy of ROSE for assessing malignancy (sensitivity of 94.5% and specificity of 100%) and non-malignancy (sensitivity of 97.8% and specificity of 100%) was excellent. The sensitivity of ROSE for diagnosing small cell carcinoma (100%) was highest, followed by adenocarcinoma (89.2%) and squamous cell carcinoma (75.0%). Performance of ROSE by a trained pulmonologist also determined tuberculosis with a high diagnostic sensitivity (83.3%) and specificity (100%).

conclusionsA trained pulmonologist can reliably carry out ROSE to ensure the adequacy of the sample, distinguish between malignancy and non-malignancy, and make a preliminary diagnosis in a large number of cases.
