Adequacy evaluation of 22-gauge needle endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition samples and glass slides preparation for successful comprehensive genomic profiling testing: A single institute experience.

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
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the successful sequencing rate of Foundation One CDx (F1CDx) using small tissue samples obtained with a 22-gauge needle (22G) through endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle acquisition (EUS-TA) and to propose guidelines for tissue quantity evaluation criteria and proper slide preparation in clinical practice. Methods: Between June 2019 and April 2024, 119 samples of 22G EUS-TA collected for F1CDx testing at Himeji Red Cross Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Tissue adequacy was only assessed based on tumor cell percentage (≥20%). The procedure stopped when white tissue fragments reached 20 mm during macroscopic on-site evaluation. The specimens were prepared using both 'tissue preserving sectioning' to retain tissue within formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded blocks and the 'thin sectioning matched needle gauge and tissue length' method with calculation to ensure minimal unstained slides for the 1 mm Results: Of 119 samples, 108 (90.8%) were suitable for F1CDx. Excluding the cases not submitted for testing, in the 45 cases where F1CDx was done using 22G EUS-TA samples, eight (17.8%) had a sum of tissue area tissue of 25 mm Conclusions: The 22G EUS-TA needle is an effective tool for providing the sufficient tissue volume required for F1CDx.
