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

Microvascular invasion (MVI) is one of the most important factors leading to poor prognosis for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, and detection of MVI prior to surgical operation could great benefit patient's prognosis and survival. Since it is still lacking effective non-invasive strategy for MVI detection before surgery, novel MVI determination approaches were in urgent need. In this study, complete blood count, blood test and AFP test results are utilized to perform preoperative prediction of MVI based on a novel interpretable deep learning method to quantify the risk of MVI. The proposed method termed as "Interpretation based Risk Prediction" can estimate the MVI risk precisely and achieve better performance compared with the state-of-art MVI risk estimation methods with concordance indexes of 0.9341 and 0.9052 on the training cohort and the independent validation cohort, respectively. Moreover, further analyses of the model outputs demonstrate that the quantified risk of MVI from our model could serve as an independent preoperative risk factor for both recurrence-free survival and overall survival of HCC patients. Thus, our model showed great potential in quantification of MVI risk and prediction of prognosis for HCC patients.
