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

objectiveTo develop and validate a multiregional-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics model and combine it with clinical data for individual preoperative prediction of lymph node (LN) metastasis in rectal cancer patients.

methods186 rectal adenocarcinoma patients from our retrospective study cohort were randomly selected as the training (n = 123) and testing cohorts (n = 63). Spearman's rank correlation coefficient and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator were used for feature selection and dimensionality reduction. Five support vector machine (SVM) classification models were built using selected clinical and semantic variables, single-regional radiomics features, multiregional radiomics features, and combinations, for predicting LN metastasis in rectal cancer. The performance of the five SVM models was evaluated

resultsThe clinical, single-regional radiomics and multiregional radiomics models showed moderate predictive performance and diagnostic accuracy in predicting LN metastasis with an AUC of 0.725, 0.702, and 0.736, respectively. A model with improved performance was created by combining clinical data with single-regional radiomics features (AUC = 0.827, (95% CI, 0.711-0.911),

conclusionMultiregional-based MRI radiomics combined with clinical data can improve efficacy in predicting LN metastasis and could be a useful tool to guide surgical decision-making in patients with rectal cancer.
