Quantification of Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease with Radiomics-based CT Scores.
Article in Radiology. Cardiothoracic imaging, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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 develop radiomics-based CT scores for assessing lung disease severity and exacerbation risk in adult patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). MATERIALS AND
methodsThis two-center retrospective observational study was approved by an institutional ethics committee, and the need for patient consent was waived. A total of 215 outpatients with CF referred for unenhanced follow-up chest CT were evaluated in two different centers between January 2013 and December 2016. After lung segmentation, chest CT scans from center 1 (training cohort, 162 patients [median age, 29 years; interquartile range {IQR}, 24-36 years; 84 men]) were used to build CT scores from 38 extracted CT features, using five different machine learning techniques trained to predict a clinical prognostic score, the Nkam score. The correlations between the developed CT scores, two different clinical prognostic scores (Liou and CF-ABLE), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV
resultsIn the test cohort, all radiomics-based CT scores showed moderate to strong correlation with the Nkam score (
conclusionRadiomics can be used to build automated CT scores that correlate to clinical severity and exacerbation risk in adult patients with CF.Supplemental material is available for this article.See also the commentary by Elicker and Sohn in this issue.© RSNA, 2020.
