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

introductionThe accurate grading of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is crucial for effective treatment and patient care, but the current method, relying on pathologist visual assessment, can be subjective.

aimThis study aimed to quantitatively investigate nuclear morphometrics in cSCC tumor cells, specifically examining potential differences between established histological grades and exploring the utility of digital morphometrics in characterizing nuclear morphology. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe analyzed 47 cSCC cases, utilizing whole slide images and CellProfiler software to extract nuclear morphometric features from a total of 519 828 nuclei.

resultsThe results showed significant differences in nuclear size, shape, and spatial arrangement between different tumor grades. Notably, grade 3 tumors exhibited distinct characteristics compared to grades 1 and 2, suggesting a potential shift towards a simplified, 2-tier grading system.

conclusionsThe study highlights the potential of digital morphometrics as a valuable tool for enhancing the accuracy and objectivity of cSCC grading, ultimately improving patient care.
