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

Recent studies identified distinct genomic subtypes of lower-grade gliomas that could potentially be used to guide patient treatment. This study aims to determine whether there is an association between genomics of lower-grade glioma tumors and patient outcomes using algorithmic measurements of tumor shape in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We analyzed preoperative imaging and genomic subtype data from 110 patients with lower-grade gliomas (WHO grade II and III) from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Computer algorithms were applied to analyze the imaging data and provided five quantitative measurements of tumor shape in two and three dimensions. Genomic data for the analyzed cohort of patients consisted of previously identified genomic clusters based on IDH mutation and 1p/19q co-deletion, DNA methylation, gene expression, DNA copy number, and microRNA expression. Patient outcomes were quantified by overall survival. We found that there is a strong association between angular standard deviation (ASD), which measures irregularity of the tumor boundary, and the IDH-1p/19q subtype (p < 0.0017), RNASeq cluster (p < 0.0002), DNA copy number cluster (p < 0.001), and the cluster of clusters (p < 0.0002). The RNASeq cluster was also associated with bounding ellipsoid volume ratio (p < 0.0005). Tumors in the IDH wild type cluster and R2 RNASeq cluster which are associated with much poorer outcomes generally had higher ASD reflecting more irregular shape. ASD also showed association with patient overall survival (p = 0.006). Shape features in MRI were strongly associated with genomic subtypes and patient outcomes in lower-grade glioma.
