Impact of the quality of resected thyroid cancer tissue sample on next-generation sequencing testing.
Article in Pathology international, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Activating rearranged during transfection (RET) proto-oncogene alterations can be identified using next-generation sequencing (NGS) of tumor DNA/RNA. We assessed factors associated with NGS (Oncomine Dx Target Test [ODxTT]) success for resected thyroid cancer (TC) specimens, including sample age, processing conditions, and DNA/RNA quality. TC samples were from three Japanese hospitals, with sample age <1-<10 years, fixative 10%/15% neutralized buffered formalin (NBF), and fixation time ≤48 h/>48 h-≤72 h. NGS success rate was defined as the percentage of samples returning validated NGS results (RET fusion-positive/negative [RNA] or RET mutation-positive/negative [DNA], detected using ODxTT). DNA/RNA quality was assessed with indexes based on electrophoresis (DNA/RNA integrity number, DV
