A Novel Monochromatic Light to Detect Target Specimens Within Endoscopic Ultrasonography-guided Fine-needle Aspiration Biopsy Samples.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimEndoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (EUS-FNB) enhances the diagnostic capabilities of EUS by providing additional pathological samples. However, detecting the target specimens within the collected samples can be challenging. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal wavelength of light for detection of target specimens within EUS-FNB samples in an animal experiment. MATERIALS AND
methodsEUS-FNB pancreatic tissue samples were collected from a male beagle (weight, 10 kg), and the samples were illuminated with monochromatic light ranging from 430 to 700 nm in 5-nm intervals. The intensities of the target specimen and blood samples were analyzed using the densitometry of the images obtained through irradiation.
resultsWe found that transmitted monochromatic light of 605 nm most vividly enhanced the contrast between the target specimens and blood in the samples in the impression of appearance.
conclusionThus, microscopical observations under transmitted light of 605 nm are optimal for target tissue identification within EUS-FNB samples.
