Evaluation of intra-osseous jaw lesion diagnosis using fine needle aspiration cytology among Indian patients.
Article in Bioinformation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) has historically been used to diagnose thyroid cancers, growths on the neck, salivary glands and other ailments. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate efficacy of FNAC in the diagnosis of intra-osseous jaw pathologies among Indian patients. Diagnosis obtained through FNAC was correlated with histopathological examination in 42 cases with an accuracy of 84%. The sensitivity of FNAC in diagnosing bone lesions was 80% and the specificity was 88%. The positive predictive value was 86.9%and negative predictive value was 81.4%. Thus, the efficiency of FNAC in the diagnosis of lesions in the intra-osseous jaw among Indian patients is reported.
