Reliability as a Precondition for Trust-Segmentation Reliability Analysis of Radiomic Features Improves Survival Prediction.

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.
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
Machine learning results based on radiomic analysis are often not transferrable. A potential reason for this is the variability of radiomic features due to varying human made segmentations. Therefore, the aim of this study was to provide comprehensive inter-reader reliability analysis of radiomic features in five clinical image datasets and to assess the association of inter-reader reliability and survival prediction. In this study, we analyzed 4598 tumor segmentations in both computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging data. We used a neural network to generate 100 additional segmentation outlines for each tumor and performed a reliability analysis of radiomic features. To prove clinical utility, we predicted patient survival based on all features and on the most reliable features. Survival prediction models for both computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging datasets demonstrated less statistical spread and superior survival prediction when based on the most reliable features.
