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

backgroundTo determine whether preoperative computed tomography (CT) features can be used for the prediction of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) with a high Ki-67 proliferation index (Ki-67 PI).

methodsA total of 198 patients with surgically and pathologically proven GISTs were retrospectively included. All GISTs were divided into a low Ki-67 PI group (<10%) and a high Ki-67 PI group (≥10%). All imaging features were blindly interpreted by two radiologists. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were conducted to evaluate the predictive performance of the imaging features.

resultsImaging features were found to be significantly different between the low and the high Ki-67 PI groups (P<0.05). Wall thickness of necrosis showed the highest predictive ability, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.838 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.627-0.957], followed by necrosis, necrosis degree, hyperenhancement of the overlying mucosa (HYOM), and long diameter (LD) (AUC >0.7, P<0.05). HYOM was the strongest predictive feature for the high Ki-67 PI GISTs group, with an odds ratio (OR) value of 30.037 (95% CI: 5.707-158.106).

conclusionsImaging features, including the presence of necrosis, high necrosis degree, thick wall of necrosis, and HYOM were significant predictive indicators for the high Ki-67 PI GISTs group.
