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

backgroundThe aim of this work was to assess the robustness of cardiac SPECT radiomic features against changes in imaging settings, including acquisition, and reconstruction parameters.

methodsFour commercial SPECT and SPECT/CT cameras were used to acquire images of a static cardiac phantom mimicking typical myorcardial perfusion imaging using 185 MBq of

resultsThe Inverse Difference Moment Normalized (IDMN) and Inverse Difference Normalized (IDN) features from the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM), Run Percentage (RP) from the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLRLM), Zone Entropy (ZE) from the Gray Level Size Zone Matrix (GLSZM), and Dependence Entropy (DE) from the Gray Level Dependence Matrix (GLDM) feature sets were the only features that exhibited high reproducibility (COV ≤ 5%) against changes in all imaging settings. In addition, Large Area Low Gray Level Emphasis (LALGLE), Small Area Low Gray Level Emphasis (SALGLE) and Low Gray Level Zone Emphasis (LGLZE) from GLSZM, and Small Dependence Low Gray Level Emphasis (SDLGLE) from GLDM feature sets turned out to be less reproducible (COV > 20%) against changes in imaging settings. The GLRLM (31.88%) and GLDM feature set (54.2%) had the highest (COV < 5%) and lowest (COV > 20%) number of the reproducible features, respectively. Matrix size had the largest impact on feature variability as most of the features were not repeatable when matrix size was modified with 82.8% of them having a COV > 20%.

conclusionThe repeatability and reproducibility of SPECT/CT cardiac radiomic features under different imaging settings is feature-dependent. Different image acquisition and reconstruction protocols have variable effects on radiomic features. The radiomic features exhibiting low COV are potential candidates for future clinical studies.
