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

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) frequently metastasizes to the brain, significantly worsened prognoses. This study aimed to develop an interpretable model for predicting survival in NSCLC patients with brain metastases (BM) integrating radiomic features and RNA sequencing data. 292 samples are collected and analyzed utilizing T1/T2 MRIs. Bidirectional stepwise logistic regression is employed to identify significant variables, facilitating the construction of a prognostic model, which is benchmarked against four machine learning algorithms. BM tissue samples are processed for RNA extraction and sequencing. The optimal model achieved an AUC of 0.96 and a C-index of 0.89 in the train set and an AUC of 0.84 with a C-index of 0.78 in the test set, indicating strong predictive performance and generalizability. Patients from Xiangya Hospital are stratified into high-risk (n = 11) and low-risk (n = 30) groups. RNA sequencing revealed an enrichment of immune-related pathways, particularly the interferon (IFN) pathway in the low-risk group. Immune cell infiltration analysis identified a significant presence of CD8
