Using Systemised Nomenclature of Medicine (SNOMED) codes to select digital pathology whole slide images for long-term archiving.
Article in Journal of clinical pathology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The archiving of whole slide images represents a hurdle to digital pathology implementation largely because of the amount of data generated. The retention of glass slides is currently recommended for a minimum of 10 years, but it is for individual departments to determine how digital images are archived and for how long. In a retrospective study, we examined the combination of Systemised Nomenclature of Medicine (SNOMED) codes allocated to cases reported between July 2011 and December 2015 and recalled more than 12 months after diagnosis in comparison to non-recalled cases.Our results show that 0.2% of cases are recalled after 12 months, and SNOMED code combinations can be used to identify which cases are likely to be recalled and which are not. This approach could reduce the number of cases archived by 62% and still ensure all cases likely to be recalled remain in the archive.
