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

objectivesThis study was designed to assess computed tomography (CT)-based radiomics of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), extracted from posttreatment scans in estimating pathologic treatment response to neoadjuvant therapy, and to compare treatment response estimates between CT-based radiomics and radiological response assessment by using RECIST 1.1 and CT morphologic criteria.

methodsPatients who underwent resection for CRLM from January 2003-December 2012 at a single institution were included. Patients who did not receive preoperative systemic chemotherapy, or without adequate imaging, were excluded. Imaging characteristics were evaluated based on RECIST 1.1 and CT morphologic criteria. A machine-learning model was designed with radiomic features extracted from manually segmented posttreatment CT tumoral and peritumoral regions to identify pathologic responders (≥ 50% response) versus nonresponders. Statistical analysis was performed at the tumor level.

resultsEighty-five patients (median age, 62 years; 55 women) with 95 tumors were included. None of the subjectively evaluated imaging characteristics were associated with pathologic response (p > 0.05). Inter-reader agreement was substantial for RECIST categorical response assessment (K = 0.70) and moderate for CT morphological group response (K = 0.50). In the validation cohort, the machine learning model built with radiomic features obtained an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.87 and outperformed subjective RECIST assessment (AUC = 0.53, p = 0.01) and morphologic assessment (AUC = 0.56, p = 0.02).

conclusionsRadiologist assessment of oligometastatic CRLM after neoadjuvant therapy using RECIST 1.1 and CT morphologic criteria was not associated with pathologic response. In contrast, a machine-learning model based on radiomic features extracted from tumoral and peritumoral regions had high diagnostic performance in assessing responders versus nonresponders.
