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

objectivesThis study aims to develop a model based on intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics from fat-suppressed T2-weighted(FS-T2WI) images to predict the histopathological grade of soft tissue sarcoma (STS).

methodsThis retrospective study included 160 patients with STS from two centers, of which 82 were low-grade and 78were high-grade. Radiomics features were extracted and selected from the region of tumor mass volume (TMV) and peritumoral tumor volume (PTV) respectively. The TMV, PTV, and combined(TM-PTV) radiomics models were established in the training cohort (n = 111)for the prediction of histopathological grade. Finally, a radiomics nomogram was constructed by combining the TM-PTV radiomics signature (Rad-score) and the selected clinical-MRI predictor. The ROC and calibration curves were used to determine the performance of the TMV, PTV, and TM-PTV models in the training and validation cohort (n = 49). The decision curve analysis (DCA) and calibration curves were used to investigate the clinical usefulness and calibration of the nomogram, respectively.

resultsThe TMV model, PTV model, and TM-PTV model had AUCs of 0.835, 0.879, and 0.917 in the training cohort and 0.811, 0.756, 0.896 in the validation cohort. The nomogram, including the TM-PTV signatures and peritumoral hyperintensity, achieved good calibration and discrimination with a C-index of 0.948 (95% CI, 0.906 to 0.990) in the training cohort and 0.921 (95% CI, 0.840 to 0.995) in the validation cohort. Decision curve analysis demonstrated the clinical usefulness of the nomogram.

conclusionThe proposed model based on intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics showed good performance in distinguishing low-grade from high-grade STSs.
