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

objectivesNear-pure lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) subtypes demonstrate strong stratification of radiomic values, providing basic information for pathological subtyping. We sought to predict the presence of high-grade (micropapillary and solid) components in lung ADCs using quantitative image analysis with near-pure radiomic values.

methodsOverall, 103 patients with lung ADCs of various histological subtypes were enrolled for 10-repetition, 3-fold cross-validation (cohort 1); 55 were enrolled for testing (cohort 2). Histogram and textural features on computed tomography (CT) images were assessed based on the "near-pure" pathological subtype data. Patch-wise high-grade likelihood prediction was performed for each voxel within the tumour region. The presence of high-grade components was then determined based on a volume percentage threshold of the high-grade likelihood area. To compare with quantitative approaches, consolidation/tumour (C/T) ratio was evaluated on CT images; we applied radiological invasiveness (C/T ratio > 0.5) for the prediction.

resultsIn cohort 1, patch-wise prediction, combined model (C/T ratio and patch-wise prediction), whole-lesion-based prediction (using only the "near-pure"-based prediction model), and radiological invasiveness achieved a sensitivity and specificity of 88.00 ± 2.33% and 75.75 ± 2.82%, 90.00 ± 0.00%, and 77.12 ± 2.67%, 66.67% and 90.41%, and 90.00% and 45.21%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity, respectively, for cohort 2 were 100.0% and 95.35% using patch-wise prediction, 100.0% and 95.35% using combined model, 75.00% and 95.35% using whole-lesion-based prediction, and 100.0% and 69.77% using radiological invasiveness.

conclusionUsing near-pure radiomic features and patch-wise image analysis demonstrated high levels of sensitivity and moderate levels of specificity for high-grade ADC subtype-detecting. KEY POINTS: • The radiomic values extracted from lung adenocarcinoma with "near-pure" histological subtypes provide useful information for high-grade (micropapillary and solid) components detection. • Using near-pure radiomic features and patch-wise image analysis, high-grade components of lung adenocarcinoma can be predicted with high sensitivity and moderate specificity. • Using near-pure radiomic features and patch-wise image analysis has potential role in facilitating the prediction of the presence of high-grade components in lung adenocarcinoma prior to surgical resection.
