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

Backgrounds: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation profiles play a vital role in treatment strategy decisions for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictive efficacy of baseline Methods: A sum of 313 NSCLC patients with pre-treatment Results: Three hundred thirteen NSCLC patients were classified into a training set (n=218) and a validation set (n=95). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that SUVmax and sex were independent indicators of EGFR mutation status and mutation site. Eight CT-derived RS, six PET-derived RS, and two clinical factors were retained to develop integrated models, which exhibited excellent ability to distinguish between EGFR wild type (EGFR-WT), EGFR 19 mutation type (EGFR-19-MT), and EGFR 21 mutation type (EGFR-21-MT). The SVM model outperformed the RF model and the DT model, yielding training area under the curves (AUC) of EGFR-WT, EGFR-19-WT, and EGFR-21-WT, with 0.881, 0.851, and 0.849, respectively, and validation AUCs of 0.926, 0.805 and 0.859, respectively. For prediction of OS, the integrated nomogram is superior to the clinical nomogram and the radiomics nomogram, with C-indexes of 0.80 in the training set and 0.83 in the validation set, respectively. Conclusions: The PET/CT-based radiomics analysis might provide a novel approach to predict EGFR mutation status and mutation site in NSCLC patients and could serve as useful predictors for the patients' survival outcome of targeted therapy in clinical practice.
