Study of the radiologic and pathologic correlations for subsolid lung adenocarcinoma with the application of whole-mount sections (ECTOP1011).
Article in Translational lung cancer research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: The radiologic and pathologic correlations of subsolid lung cancers are unclear. No study has used the whole-mount sections to analyze the correlations. This study aims to clarify the radiologic and pathologic correlations through the use of the whole-mount sections analysis. Methods: Patients with subsolid lung adenocarcinomas receiving segmentectomy or lobectomy were included. The whole-mount sections were made. The same radiologic and pathologic sections were identified. Radiologic and pathologic tumor and solid/invasive sizes were compared. Histologic features in the solid component and ground-glass opacity (GGO) regions were evaluated. Results: There were 102 patients with 20 pure GGO and 82 part-solid tumors analyzed. There was one adenocarcinoma Conclusions: For subsolid lung cancers, the pathologic invasive size was radiologically underestimated. There were acinar/papillary, but no micropapillary subtype in pure GGO tumors. In part-solid tumors, there were micropapillary subtypes in GGO region and micropapillary/solid subtypes in solid region.
