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

backgroundThis study aimed to determine the impact of including radiomics analysis of non-tumorous bone region of interest in improving the performance of pathological response prediction to chemotherapy in high-grade osteosarcomas (HOS), compared to radiomics analysis of tumor region alone.

methodsThis retrospective study included 157 patients diagnosed with HOS between November 2013 and November 2017 (age range, 5-44 years; mean age, 16.99 ±7.42 years), in which 69 and 88 patients were diagnosed as pathological good response (pGR) and non-pGR, respectively. Radiomics features were extracted from tumor and non-tumorous bone regions based on diagnostic CT images. Pathological response classifiers were developed and validated via leave-one-out cross validation (LOOCV) and independent validation methods by using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) value as the figure of merit.

resultsUsing the LOOCV, the classifiers combining features from tumor and non-tumorous regions showed better prediction performance than those from tumor region alone (AUC, 0.8207±0.0043

conclusionsRadiomics analysis of combined tumor and non-tumorous bone features showed improved performance of pathological response prediction to chemotherapy in HOS compared to that of tumor features alone. Moreover, the proposed classifier had the potential to predict pathological response to chemotherapy for HOS patients.
