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.

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.

Abstract

Various morphonuclear studies using digital image analysis have been taken into account in order to establish the malignancy of thyroid lesions based on their size and on the chromatographic characteristics of tumor cell nuclei. Nuclear morphometry involves the measurement of nuclear parameters to obtain diagnostically important information in an objective and reproducible manner. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the detailed morphometric analysis of histopathological preparations with lesions of the thyroid gland and to investigate its role in differentiating between benign and malignant thyroid lesions. The present study included 10 benign and 26 malignant thyroid cases with different selected thyroid lesions. Using a microscope connected to a computerized video system, nuclear morphometric parameters including the nuclear area, perimeter, average intensity, red average, width and roundness, were measured and analyzed. The main parameters used in the statistical calculation were significant in distinguishing between benign and malignant thyroid lesions. The association of morphometry in cytological smears for suspected malignant follicular lesions led to increased accuracy in establishing a suspicious malignant diagnosis for follicular lesions. Nuclear morphometry provides an unbiased point of view that increases diagnosis accuracy. Computerized morphometry can positively influence diagnostic accuracy, allowing for a better correlation with clinical and imaging data.
