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

objectivesTo develop and validate a clinicoradiological model integrating clinical and computed tomography (CT) features to preoperative predict histological classification in patients with epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs).

methodsThis retrospective study included 470 patients who were pathologically proven EOCs and performed by contrast enhanced CT before treatment from center I (training cohort, N = 329; internal test cohort, N = 141) and 83 EOC patients who were included as an external test cohort from center II. The univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to select significant clinical and CT features. The significant clinical model was developed based on clinical characteristics. The significant radiological model was established by CT features. The significant clinical and CT features were used to construct the clinicoradiological model. Model performances were evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curve, the Brier score and decision curve analysis (DCA). The AUCs were compared by net reclassification index (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI).

resultsThe significant clinical and CT parameters including age, transverse diameter, morphology, margin, ascites and lymphadenopathy were incorporated to build the clinicoradioligical model. The clinicoradiological model showed relatively satisfactory discrimination between type I and type II EOCs with the AUC of 0.841 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.797-0.886), 0.874 (95% CI 0.811-0.937) and 0.826 (95% CI 0.729-0.923) in the training, internal and external test cohorts, respectively. The NRI and IDI showed the clinicoradiological model significantly performed than those of the clinical model (all P < 0.05). No statistical significance was found between radiological and clinicoradiological model. The clinicoradiological model demonstrated optimal classification accuracy and clinical application value.

conclusionThe easily accessible nomogram based on the clinicoradiologic model showed favorable performance in distinguishing between type I and type II EOCs and could therefore be used to improve the clinical management of EOC patients.
