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

purposeAccurate prediction of adverse pathology (AP) in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is crucial for formulating effective treatment strategies. This study aims to develop and evaluate a multimodal deep learning model based on [

methods341 PCa patients who underwent radical prostatectomy (RP) with mpMRI and PET/CT scans were retrospectively analyzed. We generated deep learning signature from mpMRI and PET/CT with a multimodal deep learning model (MPC) based on convolutional neural networks and transformer, which was subsequently incorporated with clinical characteristics to construct an integrated model (MPCC). These models were compared with clinical models and single mpMRI or PET/CT models.

resultsThe MPCC model showed the best performance in predicting AP (AUC, 0.955 [95% CI: 0.932-0.975]), which is higher than MPC model (AUC, 0.930 [95% CI: 0.901-0.955]). The performance of the MPC model is better than that of single PET/CT (AUC, 0.813 [95% CI: 0.780-0.845]) or mpMRI (AUC, 0.865 [95% CI: 0.829-0.901]). Additionally, MPCC model is also effective in predicting single adverse pathological features.

conclusionThe deep learning model that integrates mpMRI and [
