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

backgroundThis study aimed to develop and validate an ultrasound radiomics model for distinguishing invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) from ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) by combining intratumoral and peritumoral features.

methodsRetrospective analysis was performed on 454 patients from Chengzhong Hospital. The patients were randomly divided in accordance with a ratio of 8:2 into a training group (363 cases) and validation group (91 cases). In addition, 175 patients from Yanghu Hospital were used as the external test group. The peritumoral ranges were set to 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 mm. Mann-Whitney U-test, recursive feature elimination, and a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator were used to in the dimension reduction of the radiomics features and clinical knowledge, and machine learning logistic regression classifiers were utilized to construct the diagnostic model. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristics, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were used to evaluate the model performance.

resultsBy combining peritumoral features of different ranges, the AUC of the radiomics model was improved in the validation and test groups. In the validation group, the maximum increase in AUC was 9.7% (P = 0.031, AUC = 0.803) when the peritumoral range was 8 mm. Similarly, when the peritumoral range was only 8 mm in the test group, the maximum increase in AUC was 4.9% (P = 0.005, AUC = 0.770). In this study, the best prediction performance was achieved when the peritumoral range was only 8 mm.

conclusionsThe ultrasound-based radiomics model that combined intratumoral and peritumoral features exhibits good ability to distinguish between IDC and DCIS. The selection of peritumoral range size exerts an important effect on the prediction performance of the radiomics model.
