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

objectiveTo investigate the value of monochromatic dual-energy CT (DECT) images based on radiomics in differentiating benign from malignant solitary pulmonary nodules. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective study was approved by the institutional review board, and informed consent was waived. Pathologically confirmed lung nodules smaller than 3 cm with integrated arterial phase and venous phase (AP and VP) gemstone spectral imaging were retrospectively identified. After extracting the radiomic features of each case, principal component analysis (PCA) was used for feature selection, and after training with the logistic regression method, three classification models (Model

resultsA total of 153 patients were included and divided into a training cohort (n = 107) and a validation cohort (n = 46). A total of 1130 radiomic features were extracted from each case. The PCA method selected 22, 25 and 35 principal components to construct the three models. The diagnostic accuracy of Model

conclusionsWe developed a radiomics model based on monochromatic DECT images to identify solitary pulmonary nodules. This model could serve as an effective tool for discriminating benign from malignant pulmonary nodules in patients. The combination of arterial phase and venous phase imaging could significantly improve the model performance.
