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

backgroundChemotherapy resistance is the main cause of ovarian cancer progression and even death. However, there are no clear indicators for predicting the risk of drug resistance in patients. Intra-tumor heterogeneity (ITH) is one of the characteristics of malignant tumors, which is associated with the treatment and prognosis of tumors. Accordingly, our study aims to investigate the correlation between the image features of intra-tumor heterogeneity and drug resistance of ovarian cancer based on artificial intelligence.

methodsWe obtained hematoxylin and eosin staining frozen histopathological images of ovarian cancer and paracarcinoma tissues from the Cancer Genome Atlas. We extracted quantitative image features of whole-slide images based on the automatic image nuclear segmentation processing technology. After that, we used bioinformatics analysis to find the relationship between image features of intra-tumor heterogeneity and drug resistance.

resultsOur results show that our automatic image processing process based on computer artificial intelligence can extract image features effectively, and the key image features extracted are closely related to ITH. Among them, the Perimeter.sd image feature with the most prominent ITH feature can accurately predict the risk of platinum-based chemotherapy drug resistance in ovarian cancer patients.

conclusionAutomatic image processing and feature extraction based on artificial intelligence have excellent results. Perimeter.sd can be used as a useful image feature indicator for evaluating ITH. ITH is associated with drug resistance of ovarian cancer, so ITH characteristics can be used as an effective indicator to evaluate drug resistance in patients with ovarian cancer.
