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

purposeLiver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) is limited by interreader variability. Thus, our study aimed to develop a deep-learning model for classifying LI-RADS major features using subtraction images using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

methodsThis single-center retrospective study included 222 consecutive patients who underwent resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) between January, 2015 and December, 2017. Subtraction arterial, portal venous, and transitional phase images of preoperative gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI were used to train and test the deep-learning models. Initially, a three-dimensional (3D) nnU-Net-based deep-learning model was developed for HCC segmentation. Subsequently, a 3D U-Net-based deep-learning model was developed to assess three LI-RADS major features (nonrim arterial phase hyperenhancement [APHE], nonperipheral washout, and enhancing capsule [EC]), utilizing the results determined by board-certified radiologists as reference standards. The HCC segmentation performance was assessed using the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), sensitivity, and precision. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the deep-learning model for classifying LI-RADS major features were calculated.

resultsThe average DSC, sensitivity, and precision of our model for HCC segmentation were 0.884, 0.891, and 0.887, respectively, across all the phases. Our model demonstrated a sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 96.6% (28/29), 66.7% (4/6), and 91.4% (32/35), respectively, for nonrim APHE; 95.0% (19/20), 50.0% (4/8), and 82.1% (23/28), respectively, for nonperipheral washout; and 86.7% (26/30), 54.2% (13/24), and 72.2% (39/54) for EC, respectively.

conclusionWe developed an end-to-end deep-learning model that classifies the LI-RADS major features using subtraction MRI images. Our model exhibited satisfactory performance in classifying LI-RADS major features.
