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

purposeTo develop a magnetic resonance imaging radiomics model to predict tumor deposits (TDs) and prognosis in stage T3 lymph node positive (T3N+) rectal cancer (RC).

methodsThis retrospective study included 163 patients with pathologically confirmed T3N + RC from December 2013 to December 2015. The patients were divided into two groups for training and testing. Extracting radiomic features from MR images and selecting features using principal component analysis (PCA), then radiomic scores (rad-scores) were obtained by logistic regression analysis. Finally, a combined TDs prediction model containing rad-scores and clinical features was developed. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the prediction performance. The overall survival (OS) rate in patients with high-risk and low-risk TDs predicted by rad-scores was validated by Kaplan-Meier survival curves.

resultsOf the 163 patients included, histological TDs was diagnosed in 45 patients. The area under the curve (AUC) of the final model was 0.833 (training) and 0.844 (testing). The patients with rad-scores predicted high-risk were associated with OS. In addition, postoperative adjuvant therapy improved the OS of the high-risk TDs group (P < 0.05).

conclusionMRI-based radiomics modeling helps in the preoperative prediction of patients with TDs+ in T3N + RC and provides risk stratification for neoadjuvant therapy. In addition, the rad-scores of TDs could suggest different survival benefits of postoperative adjuvant therapy for T3N + RC patients and guide clinical treatment.
