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

purposeTo evaluate the value of multiple machine learning methods in classifying pathological grades (G1,G2, and G3), and to provide the best machine learning method for the identification of pathological grades of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) based on radiomics. MATERIALS AND

methodsA retrospective study was conducted on 82 patients with Pancreatic Neuroendocrine tumors. All patients had definite pathological diagnosis and grading results. Using Lifex software to extract the radiomics features from CT images manually. The sensitivity, specificity, area under the curve (AUC) and accuracy were used to evaluate the performance of the classification model.

resultOur analysis shows that the CT based radiomics features combined with multi algorithm machine learning method has a strong ability to identify the pathological grades of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. DC + AdaBoost, DC + GBDT, and Xgboost+RF were very valuable for the differential diagnosis of three pathological grades of PNET. They showed a strong ability to identify the pathological grade of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. The validation set AUC of DC + AdaBoost is 0.82 (G1 vs G2), 0.70 (G2 vs G3), and 0.85 (G1 vs G3), respectively.

conclusionIn conclusion, based on enhanced CT radiomics features could differentiate between different pathological grades of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Feature selection method Distance Correlation + classifier method Adaptive Boosting show a good application prospect.
