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

purposeTo construct a novel radiogenomics biomarker based on hypoxic-gene subset for the accurate prognostic prediction of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). MATERIALS AND

methodsInitially, we screened for the desired hypoxic-gene subset by analysis using the GSEA database. Through univariate and multivariate cox regression hazard ratio analysis, survival-related hypoxia genes were identified, and a genomics signature was constructed in the TCGA database. Building on this, a hypoxia-gene related radiogenomics biomarker (prediction of hypoxia-genes signature by contrast-enhanced CT radiomics) was constructed in the TCIA-KIRC database by extracting features in the venous phase of contrast-enhanced CT images, selecting features using the mRMR and LASSO algorithms, and building logistic regression models. Finally, we validated the prognostic capability of the new biomarker for patients with ccRCC in an independent validation cohort at Huashan Hospital of Fudan University, Shanghai, China.

resultsThe hypoxia-related genomics signature consisting of five genes (IFT57, PABPN1, RNF10, RNF19B and UBE2T) was shown to be significantly associated with survival for patients with ccRCC in the TCGA database, delineated by grouping of the signature expression as either low- or high-risk. In the TCIA database, we constructed a radiogenomics biomarker consisting of 13 radiomics features that were optimal predictors of hypoxia-gene signature expression levels (low- or high-risk) in patients at each institution, that demonstrated AUC values of 0.91 and 0.91 in the training and validation groups, respectively. In the independent validation cohort at Huashan Hospital, our radiogenomics biomarker was significantly associated with prognosis in patients with ccRCC (p=0.0059).

conclusionsThe novel prognostic radiogenomics biomarker that was constructed achieved excellent correlation with prognosis in both the cohort of TCGA/TCIA-KIRC database and the independent validation cohort of Huashan hospital patients with ccRCC. It is anticipated that this work may assist in clinical preferential treatment decisions and promote the process of precision theranostics in the future.
