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: Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System version 2.1 (PI-RADS v2.1) was developed to standardize the interpretation of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) for prostate cancer (PCa) detection. However, a significant inter-reader variability among radiologists has been found in the PI-RADS assessment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of an in-house developed semi-automated model for PI-RADS v2.1 scoring using machine learning methods. Methods: The study cohort included an MRI dataset of 59 patients (PI-RADS v2.1 score 2 = 18, score 3 = 10, score 4 = 16, and score 5 = 15). The proposed semi-automated model involved prostate gland and zonal segmentation, 3D co-registration, lesion region of interest marking, and lesion measurement. PI-RADS v2.1 scores were assessed based on lesion measurements and compared with the radiologist PI-RADS assessment. Machine learning methods were used to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the proposed model by classification of PI-RADS v2.1 scores. Results: The semi-automated PI-RADS assessment based on the proposed model correctly classified 50 out of 59 patients and showed a significant correlation ( Conclusion: The proposed semi-automated PI-RADS v2.1 assessment system could minimize the inter-reader variability among radiologists and improve the objectivity of scoring.
