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

backgroundCombined hepatocellular and cholangiocarcinoma (CHC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) are hard to identify in clinical practice preoperatively. This study looked to develop and confirm a radiomics-based model for preoperative differentiation CHC from ICC.

methodsThe model was developed in 86 patients with ICC and 46 CHC, confirmed in 37 ICC and 20 CHC, and data were collected from January 2014 to December 2018. The radiomics scores (Radscores) were built from radiomics features of contrast-enhanced computed tomography in 12 regions of interest (ROI). The Radscore and clinical-radiologic factors were integrated into the combined model using multivariable logistic regression. The best-combined model constructed the radiomics-based nomogram, and the performance was assessed concerning its calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness.

resultsThe radiomics features extracted from tumor ROI in the arterial phase (AP) with preprocessing were selected to build Radscore and yielded an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.800 and 0.789 in training and validation cohorts, respectively. The radiomics-based model contained Radscore and 4 clinical-radiologic factors showed the best performance (training cohort, AUC =0.942; validation cohort, AUC =0.942) and good calibration (training cohort, AUC =0.935; validation cohort, AUC =0.931).

conclusionsThe proposed radiomics-based model may be used conveniently to the preoperatively differentiate CHC from ICC.
