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

Radiomics have emerged as an exciting field of research over the past few years, with very wide potential applications in personalised and precision medicine of the future. Radiomics-based approaches are still however limited in daily clinical practice in oncology. This review focus on how radiomics could be incorporated into the radiation therapy pipeline, and globally help the radiation oncologist, from the tumour diagnosis to follow-up after treatment. Radiomics could impact on all steps of the treatment pipeline, once the limitations in terms of robustness and reproducibility are overcome. Major ongoing efforts should be made to collect and share data in the most standardised manner possible.
