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

Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology is widely used in clinical practice as a simple and minimally invasive test for parotid tumors that allows for preoperative estimation of benignancy and malignancy, histological type, and malignancy grade and can be performed on an outpatient basis. In recent years, cell blocks prepared with core needle biopsy (CNB) and liquid-based cytology (LBC) have increased the reliability of immunostaining and molecular biological testing, leading to improved diagnostic accuracy. In 2018, the Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytology was introduced, but it does not include malignancy grade or histological type, so we proposed the Osaka Medical College classification as a more clinically based cell classification that includes both types of information, and we have reported on its usefulness. This review gives an overview of the history and use of FNA and describes CNB and LBC and the two classification systems.
