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

Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology was performed on a 71-year-old woman with the right breast painless tumor (12 mm in diameter). FNA smears were cellular, and two types of cells were observed as main components. One was benign ductal epithelial cells and the other was associated with larger nuclei, prominent nucleoli, and ample clear cytoplasm. However, the latter cells lacked nuclear atypia and hyperchromasia and looked benign as well. Both types of cells appeared separately as sheets but also mixed in cell clusters. The latter cells were considered myoepithelial cells and the close associated proliferation of ductal epithelial cells and myoepithelial cells suggested adenomyoepithelioma as the cytological diagnosis. Histologically, the diagnosis of adenomyoepithelioma was confirmed. The cytological findings are described in detail, and their relation to the histological characteristics is discussed. The usefulness of cytologic findings in predicting histology is also analyzed.
