HistoML, a markup language for representation and exchange of histopathological features in pathology images.
Article in Scientific data, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
The study of histopathological phenotypes is vital for cancer research and medicine as it links molecular mechanisms to disease prognosis. It typically involves integration of heterogenous histopathological features in whole-slide images (WSI) to objectively characterize a histopathological phenotype. However, the large-scale implementation of phenotype characterization has been hindered by the fragmentation of histopathological features, resulting from the lack of a standardized format and a controlled vocabulary for structured and unambiguous representation of semantics in WSIs. To fill this gap, we propose the Histopathology Markup Language (HistoML), a representation language along with a controlled vocabulary (Histopathology Ontology) based on Semantic Web technologies. Multiscale features within a WSI, from single-cell features to mesoscopic features, could be represented using HistoML which is a crucial step towards the goal of making WSIs findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR). We pilot HistoML in representing WSIs of kidney cancer as well as thyroid carcinoma and exemplify the uses of HistoML representations in semantic queries to demonstrate the potential of HistoML-powered applications for phenotype characterization.
