Application of Ultrasound Radiomics in Differentiating Benign from Malignant Breast Nodules in Women with Post-Silicone Breast Augmentation.

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
purposeTo evaluate the diagnostic value of ultrasound radiomics in distinguishing between benign and malignant breast nodules in women who have undergone silicone breast augmentation.
methodsA retrospective study was conducted of 99 breast nodules detected by ultrasound in 93 women who had undergone silicone breast augmentation. The ultrasound data were collected between 1 January 2006 and 1 September 2023. The nodules were allocated into a training set (
resultsThe random forest model exhibited superior performance in differentiating benign from malignant nodules in the validation set, achieving sensitivity of 0.765, specificity of 0.838, and an AUC of 0.787 (95% CI: 0.561-0.960). The model's accuracy, Brier score, and log loss were 0.796, 0.197, and 0.599, respectively. DCA suggested potential clinical utility of the model.
conclusionUltrasound radiomics demonstrates promising diagnostic accuracy in differentiating benign from malignant breast nodules in women with silicone breast prostheses. This approach has the potential to serve as an additional diagnostic tool for patients following silicone breast augmentation.
