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

purposeRadiomic features are increasingly utilized to evaluate tumor heterogeneity in PET imaging and to enable enhanced prediction of therapy response and outcome. An important ingredient to success in translation of radiomic features to clinical reality is to quantify and ascertain their robustness. In the present work, we studied the impact of segmentation and discretization on 88 radiomic features in 2-deoxy-2-[ PROCEDURES: Forty patients underwent [

resultsForty-four (50 %) and 55 (63 %) features depicted ICC ≥0.8 with respect to segmentation as obtained from [

conclusionsDiscretization generated larger effects on features than segmentation in both tracers. Features extracted from [
