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

purposeWe hypothesized that a radiomics approach could be employed to classify children with growth hormone deficiency (GHD) and idiopathic short stature (ISS) on sella magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Accordingly, we aimed to develop a radiomics prediction model for differentiating GHD from ISS and to evaluate the diagnostic performance thereof. MATERIALS AND

methodsShort stature pediatric patients diagnosed with GHD or ISS from March 2011 to July 2020 at our institution were recruited. We enrolled 312 patients (GHD 210, ISS 102) with normal sella MRI and temporally split them into training and test sets (7:3). Pituitary glands were semi-automatically segmented, and 110 radiomic features were extracted from the coronal T2-weighted images. Feature selection and model development were conducted by applying mutual information (MI) and a light gradient boosting machine, respectively. After training, the model's performance was validated in the test set. We calculated mean absolute Shapley values for each of the selected input features using the Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) algorithm. Volumetric comparison was performed for GHD and ISS groups.

resultsTen radiomic features were selected by MI. The receiver operating characteristics curve of the developed model in the test set was 0.705, with an accuracy of 70.6%. When analyzing SHAP plots, root mean squared values had the highest impact in the model, followed by various texture features. In volumetric analysis, sagittal height showed a significant difference between GHD and ISS groups.

conclusionRadiomic analysis of sella MRI may be able to differentiate between GHD and ISS in clinical practice for short-statured children.
