Impact of CT texture analysis on complication rate in CT-guided liver biopsies.

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.
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
Aim of the study: Texture analysis derived from computed tomography (CT) involves quantitative imaging parameters characterizing possible valuable associations with clinical purposes. Their prognostic capability in patients undergoing percutaneous CT-guided liver biopsy to identify associations with postinterventional bleeding complications and biopsy success is not sufficiently explored. Material and methods: Three hundred fifteen patients (124 female, 39%) with a mean age of 62.5 ±10.2 years underwent percutaneous CT-guided liver biopsy and were analyzed regarding clinical, procedure-related, and CT texture features. Results: Thirty patients (9.5%) presented with bleeding after biopsy (including two requiring interventional treatment), whereas 46 patients (14.6%) had negative biopsy successes. Distance of lesion from liver capsule was statistically significantly different in patients with and without bleeding ( Conclusions: Several CT texture features of the target lesion and the length from the capsule to the lesion were associated with bleeding complications after CT-guided percutaneous liver biopsy. This could be used to identify patients at risk at the beginning of the procedure.
