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

Cancers with high microsatellite instability (MSI-H) have a better prognosis and respond well to immunotherapy. However, MSI is not tested in all cancers because of the additional costs and time of diagnosis. Therefore, artificial intelligence (AI)-based models have been recently developed to evaluate MSI from whole slide images (WSIs). Here, we aimed to assess the current state of AI application to predict MSI based on WSIs analysis in MSI-related cancers and suggest a better study design for future studies. Studies were searched in online databases and screened by reference type, and only the full texts of eligible studies were reviewed. The included 14 studies were published between 2018 and 2021, and most of the publications were from developed countries. The commonly used dataset is The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset. Colorectal cancer (CRC) was the most common type of cancer studied, followed by endometrial, gastric, and ovarian cancers. The AI models have shown the potential to predict MSI with the highest AUC of 0.93 in the case of CRC. The relatively limited scale of datasets and lack of external validation were the limitations of most studies. Future studies with larger datasets are required to implicate AI models in routine diagnostic practice for MSI prediction.
