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

backgroundWhile REIMS technology has successfully been demonstrated for the histological identification of ex-vivo breast tumor tissues, questions regarding the robustness of the approach and the possibility of tumor molecular diagnostics still remain unanswered. In the current study, we set out to determine whether it is possible to acquire cross-comparable REIMS datasets at multiple sites for the identification of breast tumors and subtypes.

methodsA consortium of four sites with three of them having access to fresh surgical tissue samples performed tissue analysis using identical REIMS setups and protocols. Overall, 21 breast cancer specimens containing pathology-validated tumor and adipose tissues were analyzed and results were compared using uni- and multivariate statistics on normal, WT and PIK3CA mutant ductal carcinomas.

resultsStatistical analysis of data from standards showed significant differences between sites and individual users. However, the multivariate classification models created from breast cancer data elicited 97.1% and 98.6% correct classification for leave-one-site-out and leave-one-patient-out cross validation. Molecular subtypes represented by PIK3CA mutation gave consistent results across sites.

conclusionsThe results clearly demonstrate the feasibility of creating and using global classification models for a REIMS-based margin assessment tool, supporting the clinical translatability of the approach.
