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 and purpose: Predicting tumour response would be useful for selecting patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) for organ preservation strategies. We aimed to develop and validate a prediction model for T downstaging (ypT0-2) in LARC patients after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and to identify those who may benefit from consolidation chemotherapy. Materials and methods: cT3-4 LARC patients at three tertiary medical centers from January 2012 to January 2019 were retrospectively included, while a prospective cohort was recruited from June 2021 to March 2022. Eight filter (principal component analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, partial least-squares discriminant analysis, random forest)-classifier (support vector machine, logistic regression) models were established to select radiomic features. A nomogram combining radiomics and significant clinical features was developed and validated by calibration curve and decision curve analysis. Interaction test was conducted to investigate the consolidation chemotherapy benefits. Results: A total of 634 patients were included (426 in training cohort, 174 in testing cohort and 34 in prospective cohort). A radiomic prediction model using partial least-squares discriminant analysis and a support vector machine showed the best performance (AUC: 0.832 [training]; 0.763 [testing]). A nomogram combining radiomics and clinical features showed significantly better prognostic performance (AUC: 0.842 [training]; 0.809 [testing]) than the radiomic model. The model was also tested in the prospective cohort with AUC 0.727. High-probability group (score > 81.82) may have potential benefits from ≥ 4 cycles consolidation chemotherapy (OR: 4.173, 95 % CI: 0.953-18.276, p = 0.058, p Conclusion: We identified and validated a model based on multicenter pre-treatment radiomics to predict ypT0-2 in cT3-4 LARC patients, which may facilitate individualised treatment decision-making for organ-preservation strategies and consolidation chemotherapy.
