Correlation between physical characteristics of biopsy specimen and disease of cervical lymph node after contrast-enhanced ultrasound.

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
backgroundTo investigate the correlation between physical characteristics and disease of cervical lymph node biopsy specimens after contrast-enhanced ultrasound.
methodsAll patients were biopsied after CEUS, 235 patients were divided into three groups A, B and C according to the physical characteristics of specimens: 92 patients in group A were complete tissue specimens; 113 patients in group B were discontinuous tissue specimens. There were 30 patients in group C, including a small number of tissue and floc, purulent and bloody specimens. Pathological examination, pathogen culture examination and Gene X-Pert MIB examination were completed for all patients in the three groups, and statistical analysis was conducted on the integrity and traits of the specimens.
resultsGroup A included 92 intact tissue specimens, 21 with reactive hyperplasia, 17 with lymphoma, 12 with metastatic carcinoma, 13 with lymphadenopathy, 15 with necrotizing lymphadenitis, and rare lymphadenopathy. In group B, 113 patients were treated with intermittent tissue specimens, including infected lymph nodes, lymphoma in 1 case, metastatic carcinoma in 3 cases and sarcoidosis in 1 case. There were 30 patients in group C, including a small amount of tissue and floc, purulent and bloody specimens, all of which were infected lymph nodes. The χ
conclusionThe physical characteristics of cervical lymph node biopsy specimens after CEUS are correlated with the disease, which has guiding significance for postoperative specimen selection.
