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

The preoperative FNA is an important investigation in the workup of a salivary gland pathology. A preoperative diagnosis is important to plan management and counsel patients accordingly. In this study, we aimed to assess the agreement between the preoperative FNA and the final histopathology report when reported by a head and neck and a non-head and neck pathologist. All patients with major salivary gland neoplasm having undergone a preoperative FNA before surgery from January 2012 to December 2019 at our hospital were included in the study. Analysis was done to check for concordance between head and neck and non-head and neck pathologists of the preoperative FNA and final histopathology. Three hundred and twenty-five patients were included in the study. The preoperative FNA could identify the tumour as benign or malignant in the majority (
