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

objectiveTo evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and malignancy risk of The Sydney System Reporting for Lymph Nodes Cytology. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis study utilized secondary data from 156 cases to conduct a retrospective analysis of a diagnostic test method. During 2019-2021, data were collected at Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo's Anatomical Pathology Laboratory in Makassar, Indonesia. The cytology slides of each case were split into five diagnostic groups using the Sydney method, which were then compared with the results of the histopathological diagnosis.

resultsThere were six cases in the L1 category, thirty-two cases in the L2 category, thirteen patients in the L3 category, seventeen cases in the L4 category, and ninety-one cases in the L5 class. The malignant probability (MP) is computed for each diagnostic classification. L1 MP value is 66.7%, L2 MP value is 15.6%, L3 MP value is 76.9%, L4 MP value is 94.0%, and L5 MP value is 98.9%. The diagnostic value of the FNAB examination is as follows: 89.9% sensitivity, 92.9% specificity, 98.2% positive predictive value, 68.4% negative predictive value, and 90.47% diagnostic accuracy.

conclusionThe FNAB examination provides high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy in diagnosing lymph node tumors. Using a classification based on the Sydney system promotes communication between laboratories and clinicians.<br />.
