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

The integrated application of artificial intelligence (AI) and digital pathology (DP) technology has opened new avenues for advancements in oncology and molecular pathology. Consequently, studies in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) have emerged, highlighting potential in histological subtype classification, molecular aberration identification, and outcome prediction by extracting high-throughput features. However, reviews of these studies are still rare. To address this gap, we conducted a thorough literature review on DP and AI applications in RCC through database searches. Notably, we found that AI models based on deep learning achieved area under the curve (AUC) of over 0.93 in subtype classification, 0.89-0.96 in grading of clear cell RCC, 0.70-0,89 in molecular prediction, and over 0.78 in survival prediction. This review finally discussed the current state of researches and potential future directions.
