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

purposeTo construct a comprehensive model for predicting the prognosis of patients with glioblastoma (GB) using a radiomics method and integrating clinical risk factors, tumor microenvironment (TME), and imaging characteristics. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this retrospective study, we included 148 patients (85 males and 63 females; median age 53 years) with isocitrate dehydrogenase-wildtype GB between January 2016 and April 2022. Patients were randomly divided into the training (n = 104) and test (n = 44) sets. The best feature combination related to GB overall survival (OS) was selected using LASSO Cox regression analyses. Clinical, radiomics, clinical-radiomics, clinical-TME, and clinical-radiomics-TME models were established. The models' concordance index (C-index) was evaluated. The survival curve was drawn using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the prognostic stratification ability of the model was tested.

resultsLASSO Cox analyses were used to screen the factors related to OS in patients with GB, including MGMT (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.642; 95% CI 0.414-0.997; P = 0.046), TERT (HR = 1.755; 95% CI 1.095-2.813; P = 0.019), peritumoral edema (HR = 1.013; 95% CI 0.999-1.027; P = 0.049), tumor purity (TP; HR = 0.982; 95% CI 0.964-1.000; P = 0.054), CD163 + tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs; HR = 1.049; 95% CI 1.021-1.078; P < 0.001), CD68 + TAMs (HR = 1.055; 95% CI 1.018-1.093; P = 0.004), and the six radiomics features. The clinical-radiomics-TME model had the best survival prediction ability, the C‑index was 0.768 (0.717-0.819). The AUC of 1‑, 2‑, and 3‑year OS prediction in the test set was 0.842, 0.844, and 0.795, respectively.

conclusionThe clinical-radiomics-TME model is the most effective for predicting the survival of patients with GB. Radiomics features, TP, and TAMs play important roles in the prognostic model.
