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

backgroundThalidomide is an effective treatment for refractory Crohn's disease (CD). However, thalidomide-induced peripheral neuropathy (TiPN), which has a large individual variation, is a major cause of treatment failure. TiPN is rarely predictable and recognized, especially in CD. It is necessary to develop a risk model to predict TiPN occurrence.

aimTo develop and compare a predictive model of TiPN using machine learning based on comprehensive clinical and genetic variables.

methodsA retrospective cohort of 164 CD patients from January 2016 to June 2022 was used to establish the model. The National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria Sensory Scale (version 4.0) was used to assess TiPN. With 18 clinical features and 150 genetic variables, five predictive models were established and evaluated by the confusion matrix receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), area under the precision-recall curve (AUPRC), specificity, sensitivity (recall rate), precision, accuracy, and F1 score.

resultsThe top-ranking five risk variables associated with TiPN were interleukin-12 rs1353248 [

conclusionThe powerful XGBoost algorithm accurately predicts TiPN using 18 clinical features and 14 genetic variables. With the ability to identify high-risk patients using single nucleotide polymorphisms, it offers a feasible option for improving thalidomide efficacy in CD patients.
