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

In this article, we highlight the fundamental importance of the simultaneous use of dose-volume histogram (DVH) and dose-function histogram (DFH) features based on functional images calculated from 4-dimensional computed tomography (4D-CT) and deformable image registration (DIR) in developing a multivariate radiation pneumonitis (RP) prediction model. The patient characteristics, DVH features and DFH features were calculated from functional images by Hounsfield unit (HU) and Jacobian metrics, for an RP grade ≥ 2 multivariate prediction models were computed from 85 non-small cell lung cancer patients. The prediction model is developed using machine learning via a kernel-based support vector machine (SVM) machine. In the patient cohort, 21 of the 85 patients (24.7%) presented with RP grade ≥ 2. The median area under curve (AUC) was 0.58 for the generated 50 prediction models with patient clinical features and DVH features. When HU metric and Jacobian metric DFH features were added, the AUC improved to 0.73 and 0.68, respectively. We conclude that predictive RP models that incorporate DFH features were successfully developed via kernel-based SVM. These results demonstrate that effectiveness of the simultaneous use of DVH features and DFH features calculated from 4D-CT and DIR on functional image-guided radiotherapy.
