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

purposeThis study aimed to determine the diagnostic efficacy of various indicators and models for the prediction of gastric cancer with liver metastasis.

methodsClinical and spectral computed tomography (CT) data from 80 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma who underwent surgical resection were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into metastatic and non-metastatic groups based on whether or not to occur liver metastasis, and the region of interest (ROI) was measured manually on each phase iodine map at the largest level of the tumor. Iodine concentration (IC), normalized iodine concentration (nIC), and clinical data of the primary gastric lesions were analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was used to construct the clinical indicator (CI) and clinical indicator-spectral CT iodine concentration (CI-Spectral CT-IC) Models, which contained all of the parameters with statistically significant differences between the groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to evaluate the accuracy of the models.

resultsThe metastatic group showed significantly higher levels of Cancer antigen125 (CA125), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), IC, and nIC in the arterial phase, venous phase, and delayed phase than the non-metastatic group (all p < 0.05). Normalized iodine concentration Venous Phase (nICVP) exhibited a favorable performance among all IC and nIC parameters for forecasting gastric cancer with liver metastasis (area under the curve (AUC), 0.846). The combination model of clinical data with significant differences and nICVP showed the best diagnostic accuracy for predicting liver metastasis from gastric cancer, with an AUC of 0.897.

conclusionnICVP showed the best diagnostic efficacy for predicting gastric cancer with liver metastasis. Clinical Indicators-normalized ICVP model can improve the prediction accuracy for this condition.
