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

Background/aim This study aimed to explore the value of radiological and radiomic features retrieved from magnetic resonance imaging in the prediction of a Ki-67 proliferative index in meningioma patients using a machine learning model. Methods This multicenter, retrospective study included 371 patients collected from two centers. The Ki-67 expression was classified into low-expressed and high-expressed groups with a threshold of 5%. Clinical features and radiological features were collected and analyzed by using univariate and multivariate statistical analyses. Radiomic features were extracted from contrast-enhanced images, followed by three independent feature selections. Six predictive models were constructed with different combinations of features by using linear discriminant analysis (LDA) classifier. Results The multivariate analysis suggested that the presence of intratumoral necrosis (p = 0.032) and maximum diameter (p < 0.001) were independently correlated with a high Ki-67 status. The predictive models showed good performance with AUC of 0.837, accuracy of 0.810, sensitivity of 0.857, and specificity of 0.771 in the internal test and with AUC of 0.700, accuracy of 0.557, sensitivity of 0.314, and specificity of 0.885 in the external test. Conclusion The results of this study suggest that the predictive model can efficiently predict the Ki-67 index of meningioma patients to facilitate the therapeutic management.
