Nomogram for predicting invasive lung adenocarcinoma in small solitary pulmonary nodules.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: This study aimed to construct a clinical prediction model and nomogram to differentiate invasive from non-invasive pulmonary adenocarcinoma in solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs). Method: We analyzed computed tomography and clinical features as well as preoperative biomarkers in 1,106 patients with SPN who underwent pulmonary resection with definite pathology at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University between January 2020 and December 2021. Clinical parameters and imaging characteristics were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Predictive models and nomograms were developed and their recognition abilities were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The clinical utility of the nomogram was evaluated using decision curve analysis (DCA). Result: The final regression analysis selected age, carcinoembryonic antigen, bronchus sign, lobulation, pleural adhesion, maximum diameter, and the consolidation-to-tumor ratio as associated factors. The areas under the ROC curves were 0.844 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.817-0.871) and 0.812 (95% CI, 0.766-0.857) for patients in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. The predictive model calibration curve revealed good calibration for both cohorts. The DCA results confirmed that the clinical prediction model was useful in clinical practice. Bias-corrected C-indices for the training and validation cohorts were 0.844 and 0.814, respectively. Conclusion: Our predictive model and nomogram might be useful for guiding clinical decisions regarding personalized surgical intervention and treatment options.
