CT-based radiomic consensus clustering association with tumor biological behavior in clinical stage IA adenocarcinoma: a retrospective study.
Article in Translational lung cancer research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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: Research has demonstrated that radiomics models are capable of forecasting the characteristics of lung cancer. Nevertheless, due to radiomics' poor interpretability, its applicability in clinical settings remains restricted. This investigation sought to verify the correlation between radiomics features (RFs) and the biological behavior of clinical stage IA adenocarcinomas. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients diagnosed with clinical stage IA lung adenocarcinoma who underwent resection between May 2005 and December 2018. Detailed radiomics examination of the primary tumor was carried out utilizing preoperative computed tomography (CT) images. Subsequently, patients were grouped based on their RFs using consensus clustering, enabling comparison of tumor biological characteristics among the clusters. Survival disparities among the clusters were evaluated through Kaplan-Meier and Cox analyses. Results: A consensus cluster analysis was performed on 669 patients [median age, 58 years; interquartile range (IQR), 50-64 years, 257 males, 412 females], and three distinct clusters were identified. Cluster 2 was associated with radiological solid adenocarcinoma [119 of 324 (36.7%), P<0.001], larger tumors with median tumor size of 2.1 cm with IQR of 1.7 to 2.5 cm (P<0.001), central tumor [91 of 324 (28.1%), P=0.002], pleural invasion [87 of 324 (26.9%), P<0.001], occult lymph node metastasis (ONM) [106 of 324 (32.7%), P<0.001], and a higher frequency of metastasis or recurrence [62 of 324 (19.1%), P<0.001]. The frequency of histological grade 3 was the highest in Cluster 3 [8 of 34 (23.5%), P<0.001]. Cluster 1 was associated with pure ground glass nodules (pGGNs) [184 of 310 (59.4%), P<0.001], smaller tumors with median tumor size of 1.1 cm with IQR of 0.8 to 1.4 cm (P<0.001), no pleural invasion [276 of 310 (89.0%), P<0.001], histological grade 1 [114 of 248 (46.0%), P<0.001], ONM negative [292 of 310 (94.2%), P<0.001], and a lower rate of metastasis or recurrence [298 of 310 (96.1%), P<0.001]. Conclusions: Differences in tumor biological behavior were detected among consensus clusters based on the RFs of clinical stage IA adenocarcinoma.
