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

Purpose: The values of machine learning-based computed tomography (CT) imaging in histological classification and invasion prediction of thymoma were investigated. Methods: 181 patients diagnosed with thymoma by surgery or biopsy in Shantou Central Hospital between February 2017 and March 2022 were selected. According to the concept of simplified histological classification and the latest histological classification by the WHO, thymoma was divided into two groups, including low-risk (types A, AB, B1, and metaplastic type) and high-risk groups (types B2 and B3). CT images were reconstructed by filtering back projection (FBP) algorithm. CT image features were collected for statistical analysis. Results: The main symptoms of patients diagnosed with thymoma included respiratory tract infection, chest distress and shortness of breath, and chest pain. 35.91% of them suffered from complicated myasthenia gravis. Tumor size and position in low-risk and high-risk groups showed no statistical significance ( Conclusion: The machine learning-based CT image had significant values in the prediction of different histological classification and even invasion level.
