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

Radiomics is a rapidly evolving field that involves extracting and analysing quantitative features from medical images, such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance images. Radiomics has shown promise in brain tumor diagnosis and patient-prognosis prediction by providing more detailed and objective information about tumors' features than can be obtained from the visual inspection of the images alone. Radiomics data can be analyzed to determine their correlation with a tumor's genetic status and grade, as well as in the assessment of its recurrence vs. therapeutic response, among other features. In consideration of the multi-parametric and high-dimensional space of features extracted by radiomics, machine learning can further improve tumor diagnosis, treatment response, and patients' prognoses. There is a growing recognition that tumors and their microenvironments (habitats) mutually influence each other-tumor cells can alter the microenvironment to increase their growth and survival. At the same time, habitats can also influence the behavior of tumor cells. In this systematic review, we investigate the current limitations and future developments in radiomics and machine learning in analysing brain tumors and their habitats.
