The Ki-67 antigen in the new 2021 World Health Organization classification of lung neuroendocrine neoplasms.
Review in Pathologica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers.
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
Prof. Rosai's work has permeated the surgical pathology in many fields, including the 2017 World Health Organization classification on tumors of endocrine organs and pulmonary neuroendocrine cell pathology, with stimulating contributions which have also anticipated the subsequent evolution of knowledge. Among the many studies authored by Prof. Rosai, we would like to recall one of which whose topic has been encased in the new 2021 World Health Organization classification on lung tumors. This is an eminently practical paper dealing with the use of the proliferation antigen Ki-67 in lung neuroendocrine neoplasms. While these neoplasms are primarily ranked upon histologic features and Ki-67 labeling index does not play any role in classification, diagnostic dilemmas may however arise in severely crushed biopsy or cytology samples where this marker proves helpful to avoid misdiagnoses of carcinoids as small cell carcinoma. Another application of Ki-67 labeling index endorsed by the 2021 World Health Organization classification regards, alongside mitotic count, the emerging recognition of lung atypical carcinoids with increased mitotic or proliferation rates, whose biological boundaries straddle a subset of large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. This article focuses on these two practical applications of the proliferation marker Ki-67 in keeping with the 2021 World Health Organization classification, which provides standards for taxonomy, diagnosis and clinical decision making in lung neuroendocrine neoplasm patients.
