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 utilized a comprehensive nomogram to evaluate the prognosis of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia.

methodsCOVID-19 pneumonia data was divided into training set (256 of 321, 80%), internal validation set (65 of 321, 20%) and independent external validation set (n = 188). After image processing, lesion segmentation, feature extraction and feature selection, radiomics signatures and clinical indicators were used to develop a radiomics model and a clinical model respectively. Combining radiomics signatures and clinical indicators, a radiomics nomogram was built. The performance of proposed models was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Calibration curves and decision curve analysis were used to assess the performance of the radiomics nomogram.

resultsTwo clinical indicators that were age and chronic lung disease or asthma and 21 radiomics features were selected to build the radiomics nomogram. The radiomics nomogram yielded an Area Under The Curve

conclusionsThe radiomics nomogram may be used to assess the deterioration of COVID-19 pneumonia.
