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

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveNon-invasively predicting the risk of cancer metastasis before surgery can play an essential role in determining which patients can benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This study aims to investigate and test the advantages of applying a random projection algorithm to develop and optimize a radiomics-based machine learning model to predict peritoneal metastasis in gastric cancer patients using a small and imbalanced computed tomography (CT) image dataset.

methodsA retrospective dataset involving CT images acquired from 159 patients is assembled, including 121 and 38 cases with and without peritoneal metastasis, respectively. A computer-aided detection scheme is first applied to segment primary gastric tumor volumes and initially compute 315 image features. Then, five gradients boosting machine (GBM) models embedded with five feature selection methods (including random projection algorithm, principal component analysis, least absolute shrinkage, and selection operator, maximum relevance and minimum redundancy, and recursive feature elimination) along with a synthetic minority oversampling technique, are built to predict the risk of peritoneal metastasis. All GBM models are trained and tested using a leave-one-case-out cross-validation method.

resultsResults show that the GBM model embedded with a random projection algorithm yields a significantly higher prediction accuracy (71.2%) than the other four GBM models (p<0.05). The precision, sensitivity, and specificity of this optimal GBM model are 65.78%, 43.10%, and 87.12%, respectively.

conclusionsThis study demonstrates that CT images of the primary gastric tumors contain discriminatory information to predict the risk of peritoneal metastasis, and a random projection algorithm is a promising method to generate optimal feature vector, improving the performance of machine learning based prediction models.
