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: This study aims to investigate values of intra- and peri-tumoral regions in the mammography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image for prediction of sentinel lymph node metastasis (SLNM) in invasive breast cancer (BC). Methods: This study included 208 patients with invasive BC between Spe. 2017 and Apr. 2021. All patients underwent preoperative digital mammography (DM), digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) scans. Radiomics features were extracted from manually outlined intratumoral regions, and automatically dilated peritumoral tumor regions in each modality. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression was used to select key features from each region to develop radiomics signatures (RSs). Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated to evaluate performance of the RSs. Results: Intra- and peri-tumoral regions of BC can provide complementary information on the SLN status. In each modality, the Com-RSs derived from combined intra- and peri-tumoral regions always yielded higher AUCs than the Intra-RSs or Peri-RSs. A total of 10 and 11 features were identified as the most important predictors from mammography (DM plus DBT) and MRI (DCE-MRI plus DWI), respectively. The DCE-MRI plus DWI generated higher AUCs compared with DM plus DBT in the training (AUCs, DCE-MRI plus DWI vs. DM plus DBT, 0.897 vs. 0.846) and validation (AUCs, DCE-MRI plus DWI vs. DM plus DBT, 0.826 vs. 0.786) cohort. Conclusions: Radiomics features from intra- and peri-tumoral regions can provide complementary information to identify the SLNM in both mammography and MRI. The DCE-MRI plus DWI generated lower specificity, but higher AUC, accuracy, sensitivity and negative predictive value compared with DM plus DBT.
