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

objectiveImage-based prediction of molecular subgroups of Medulloblastoma (MB) has the potential to optimize and personalize therapy. The objective of the study is to distinguish between broad molecular subgroups of MB using MR-Texture analysis.

methodsThirty-eight MB patients treated between 2007 and 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Texture analysis was performed on contrast enhanced T1(T1C) and

resultsA total of 174 and 170 images were obtained for analysis from the Axial T1C and T2W image datasets. One hundred and sixty-four MR based texture features were extracted. The best model was arrived at by using a combination of 30 GLCM and six shape features on T1C MR sequence. A 10-fold cross-validation demonstrated an AUC of 0.93, 0.9, 0.93, and 0.93 in predicting WNT, SHH, Group 3, and Group 4 MB subgroups, respectively.

conclusionRadiomic analysis of MR images in MB can predict molecular subgroups with acceptable degree of accuracy. The strategy needs further validation in an external dataset for its potential use in ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Medulloblastoma can be classified into four distinct molecular subgroups using radiomic feature classifier from non-invasive Multiparametric Magnetic resonance imaging. This can have future ramifications in the extent of surgical resection of Medulloblastoma which can ultimately result in reduction of morbidity.
