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

backgroundRadiomics and radiogenomics are two words that recur often in language of radiologists, nuclear doctors and medical physicists especially in oncology field. Radiomics is the technique of medical images analysis to extract quantitative data that are not detected by human eye.

methodsThis article is a narrative review on Radiomics in Medical Imaging. In particular, the review exposes the process, the limitations related to radiomics, and future prospects are discussed.

resultsSeveral studies showed that radiomics is very promising. However, there were some critical issues: poor standardization and generalization of radiomics results, data-quality control, repeatability, reproducibility, database balancing and issues related to model overfitting.

conclusionsRadiomics procedure should made considered all pitfalls and challenges to obtain robust and reproducible results that could be generalized in other patients cohort.
