Differentiating second primary lung cancer from pulmonary metastasis in patients of single solitary pulmonary lesion with extrapulmonary tumor using multiparametric analysis of FDG PET/CT.
Article in Annals of nuclear medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectiveUsing fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (
methodsThis study retrospectively studied 84 patients with preoperative exams utilizing
resultsThe highest discriminative diagnostic value was obtained by the independent parameters energy (1,039,358.1 [95126.2-1,965,032.2] vs. 92,011.0 [45916.3-365,322.9], P = 0.001). In comparison to peak standardized uptake value (SUVpeak), total lesion glycolysis (TLG), energy, lobulation, and spiculation alone, the combined model (addition of these factors) significantly improved the differential diagnostic efficacy of SPLCs and PMs (sensitivity = 76.2%, specificity = 83.8%, area under the curve [AUC] = 0.826) and permitted reclassification using IDI = 0.176 (P < 0.001), 0.169 (P < 0.001), 0.127 (P < 0.001), and categorical NRI = 0.678 (P < 0.001), 0.637 (P < 0.001), and 0.592 (P < 0.001) compared to SUVpeak, TLG and energy separately. DeLong's test revealed a statistically significant enhancement in ROC when compared to SUVpeak (Z = 2.372, P = 0.018), TLG (Z = 2.095, P = 0.036), and energy (Z = 2.318, P = 0.020).
