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

BACKGROUND AND

aimPyogenic liver abscess (PLA) is a devastating and potentially life-threatening disease globally, with Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess (KPLA) being the most prevalent in Asia. This study aims to develop an effective and comprehensive nomogram combining clinical and radiomics features for early prediction of KPLA.

methods255 patients with PLA from 2013 to 2023 were enrolled and randomly divided into the training and validation cohorts at a 7:3 ratio. The differences between the two cohorts of patients were assessed

resultsThe nomogram incorporated four clinical features of diabetes mellitus, cryptogenic liver abscess, C-reactive protein level, and splenomegaly, and the Rad-score that was constructed based on seven optimal radiomics features. It had an AUC of 0.929 (95% CI, 0.894-0.964) and 0.923 (95% CI, 0.864-0.981) in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. The calibration and decision curves showed that the nomogram had good agreement and clinical applicability.

conclusionsThe clinical-radiomics nomogram performed well in predicting KPLA, hopefully serving as a reference for early diagnosis of KPLA.
