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

Objective: Predictive models for the occurrence of cancer symptoms by using machine learning (ML) algorithms could be used to aid clinical decision-making in order to enhance the quality of cancer care. This study aimed to develop and validate a selection of classification models that used ML algorithms to predict the occurrence of breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) among Chinese women. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of consecutive cases that had been diagnosed with breast cancer, stages I-IV. Forty-eight variables were grouped into five feature sets. Five classification models with ML algorithms were developed, and the models' performance and the variables' relative importance were assessed accordingly. Results: Of 370 eligible female participants, 91 had BCRL (24.6%). The mean age of this study sample was 49.89 (SD ​= ​7.45). All participants had had breast cancer surgery, and more than half of them had had a modified radical mastectomy ( Conclusions: This study found that in the ML training dataset, the multilayer perceptron model and the logistic regression model were the best discrimination models for predicting the outcome of BCRL, and the
