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

Radiomic datasets can be class-imbalanced, for instance, when the prevalence of diseases varies notably, meaning that the number of positive samples is much smaller than that of negative samples. In these cases, the majority class may dominate the model's training and thus negatively affect the model's predictive performance, leading to bias. Therefore, resampling methods are often utilized to class-balance the data. However, several resampling methods exist, and neither their relative predictive performance nor their impact on feature selection has been systematically analyzed. In this study, we aimed to measure the impact of nine resampling methods on radiomic models utilizing a set of fifteen publicly available datasets regarding their predictive performance. Furthermore, we evaluated the agreement and similarity of the set of selected features. Our results show that applying resampling methods did not improve the predictive performance on average. On specific datasets, slight improvements in predictive performance (+ 0.015 in AUC) could be seen. A considerable disagreement on the set of selected features was seen (only 28.7% of features agreed), which strongly impedes feature interpretability. However, selected features are similar when considering their correlation (82.9% of features correlated on average).
