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

backgroundThe high recurrence rate after radical resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) leads to its poor prognosis. We aimed to develop a model to preoperatively predict the risk of recurrence based on computed tomography (CT) radiomics and multiple clinical parameters.

methodsDatasets were retrospectively collected and analysed of 220 PDAC patients who underwent contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CE-CT) and received radical resection at 3 institutions in China between 2013 and 2017, with 153 from one institution as a training set, the remaining 67 as a validation set. For each patient, CT radiomics features were extracted from intratumoral and peritumoral regions to establish intratumoral, peritumoral and combined radiomics models using artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm. By incorporating clinical factors, radiomics-clinical nomograms were finally built by multivariable logistic regression analysis to predict 1- and 2-year recurrence risk.

findingsThe developed radiomics model integrating intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics features was superior to the conventionally constructed model merely using intratumoral radiomics features. Further, radiomics-clinical nomograms outperformed other models in predicting 1-year recurrence with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) of 0.916 (95%CI, 0.860-0.955) in the training set and 0.764 (95%CI, 0.644-0.859) in the validation set, and 2-year recurrence with an AUROC of 0.872 (95%CI: 0.809-0.921) in the training set and 0.773 (95%CI, 0.654-0.866) in the validation set.

interpretationThis study has developed and externally validated a radiomics-clinical nomogram integrating intra- and peritumoral CT radiomics signature as well as clinical factors to predict the recurrence risk of PDAC after radical resection, which will facilitate optimized and individualized treatment strategies.
