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

purposeThis is a radiomics study investigating the ability of texture analysis of MRF maps to improve differentiation between intra-axial adult brain tumors and to predict survival in the glioblastoma cohort.

methodsMagnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) acquisition was performed on 31 patients across 3 groups: 17 glioblastomas, 6 low-grade gliomas, and 8 metastases. Using regions of interest for the solid tumor and peritumoral white matter on T1 and T2 maps, second-order texture features were calculated from gray-level co-occurrence matrices and gray-level run length matrices. Selected features were compared across the three tumor groups using Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed for each feature. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis with log rank tests.

resultsLow-grade gliomas and glioblastomas had significantly higher run percentage, run entropy, and information measure of correlation 1 on T1 than metastases (p < 0.017). The best separation of all three tumor types was seen utilizing inverse difference normalized and homogeneity values for peritumoral white matter in both T1 and T2 maps (p < 0.017). In solid tumor T2 maps, lower values in entropy and higher values of maximum probability and high-gray run emphasis were associated with longer survival in glioblastoma patients (p < 0.05). Several texture features were associated with longer survival in glioblastoma patients on peritumoral white matter T1 maps (p < 0.05).

conclusionTexture analysis of MRF-derived maps can improve our ability to differentiate common adult brain tumors by characterizing tumor heterogeneity, and may have a role in predicting outcomes in patients with glioblastoma.
