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 investigate the feasibility of enhanced computed tomography (CT) radiomics analysis to differentiate between pancreatic cancer (PC) and chronic pancreatitis. METHODS AND MATERIALS: The CT images of 151 PCs and 24 chronic pancreatitis were retrospectively analyzed in the three-dimensional regions of interest on arterial phase (AP) and venous phase (VP) and segmented by MITK software. A multivariable logistic regression model was established based on the selected radiomics features. The radiomics score was calculated, and the nomogram was established. The discrimination of each model was analyzed by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Decision curve analysis (DCA) was used to evaluate clinical utility. The precision recall curve (PRC) was used to evaluate whether the model is affected by data imbalance. The Delong test was adopted to compare the diagnostic efficiency of each model.

resultsSignificant differences were observed in the distribution of gender (

conclusionThe COMB model could be a potential tool to distinguish PC from chronic pancreatitis and aid in clinical decisions.
