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

objectiveThis study aims to build machine learning-based CT radiomic features to predict patients developing metastasis after osteosarcoma diagnosis. METHODS AND MATERIALS: This retrospective study has included 81 patients with a histopathological diagnosis of osteosarcoma. The entire dataset was divided randomly into training (60%) and test sets (40%). A data augmentation technique for the minority class was performed in the training set, along with feature's selection and model's training. The radiomic features were extracted from CT's image of the local osteosarcoma. Three frequently used machine learning models tried to predict patients with lung metastases (MT) and those without lung metastases (non-MT). According to the higher area under the curve (AUC), the best classifier was chosen and applied in the testing set with unseen data to provide an unbiased evaluation of the final model.

resultsThe best classifier for predicting MT and non-MT groups used a Random Forest algorithm. The AUC and accuracy results of the test set were bulky (accuracy of 73% [ 95% coefficient interval (CI): 54%; 87%] and AUC of 0.79 [95% CI: 0.62; 0.96]). Features that fitted the model (radiomics signature) derived from Laplacian of Gaussian and wavelet filters.

conclusionsMachine learning-based CT radiomics approach can provide a non-invasive method with a fair predictive accuracy of the risk of developing pulmonary metastasis in osteosarcoma patients. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Models based on CT radiomic analysis help assess the risk of developing pulmonary metastases in patients with osteosarcoma, allowing further studies for those with a worse prognosis.
