Cytological and Pathological Characterization of Canine Neoplasm in and Around Bishoftu, Ethiopia.

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
backgroundNeoplastic diseases are among the most important conditions of morbidity and mortality in companion dogs worldwide. The research was conducted from October 2017 to May 2018 to determine the type and incidence of neoplasms in canines.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted using targeted sampling of dogs presenting with swelling or masses to assess neoplastic masses by gross examination, cytopathology and histopathology.
result60 swellings in total, based on cell origin, the overall incidence of tumours was 10% epithelial, 1.7% mesenchymal and 3.3% round cell tumours. Gross lesions observed are masses of varying consistency that have ulcerated, inflamed and haemorrhagic surfaces with necrotic areas and irregular borders. Cytologically, most of the epithelial cell tumours had clusters of cells with varying arrangements, deep nuclear chromatin, anisocytosis and anisokaryosis. On the other hand, the mesenchymal origin tumours were all pleomorphic spindle cells. Mast cell tumours were recognized by cytoplasmic granules and transmissible venereal tumours (TVTs) by typical punctate intracytoplasmic vacuoles, cell shape and prominent nucleoli. Mammary tumours were histopathologically characterized by extreme cellular and nuclear pleomorphism and invasiveness. Sertoli cell tumour, fibrothecoma, cutaneous mast cell tumour and TVT were respectively marked by sheets of Sertoli cells, spindle cells with plump thecoma cells, granulated mast cells and round cells with vesicular nuclei, which were pleomorphic.
conclusionThe study revealed that dogs were suffering from a wide range of canine neoplasms. Therefore, research has to be done on large sample populations and with a wider range of diagnostic facilities.
