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

objectivesTo evaluate the discriminatory capability of spectral CT-based radiomics to distinguish benign from malignant solitary pulmonary solid nodules (SPSNs). MATERIALS AND

methodsA retrospective study was performed including 242 patients with SPSNs who underwent contrast-enhanced dual-layer Spectral Detector CT (SDCT) examination within one month before surgery in our hospital, which were randomly divided into training and testing datasets with a ratio of 7:3. Regions of interest (ROIs) based on 40-65 keV images of arterial phase (AP), venous phases (VP), and 120kVp of SDCT were delineated, and radiomics features were extracted. Then the optimal radiomics-based score in identifying SPSNs was calculated and selected for building radiomics-based model. The conventional model was developed based on significant clinical characteristics and spectral quantitative parameters, subsequently, the integrated model combining radiomics-based model and conventional model was established. The performance of three models was evaluated with discrimination, calibration, and clinical application.

resultsThe 65 keV radiomics-based scores of AP and VP had the optimal performance in distinguishing benign from malignant SPSNs (AUC

conclusionsAmong the 40-65 keV radiomics-based scores based on SDCT, 65 keV radiomics-based score had the optimal performance in distinguishing benign from malignant SPSNs. The integrated model combining radiomics-based model based on 65 keV images of AP and VP with Z
