DCE-MRI quantitative analysis and MRI-based radiomics for predicting the early efficacy of microwave ablation in lung cancers.

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
objectivesTo evaluate the feasibility and value of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) quantitative analysis and MRI-based radiomics in predicting the efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) in lung cancers (LCs).
methodsForty-three patients with LCs who underwent DCE-MRI within 24 h of receiving MWA were enrolled in the study and divided into two groups according to the modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (m-RECIST) criteria: the effective treatment (complete response + partial response + stable disease, n = 28) and the ineffective treatment (progressive disease, n = 15). DCE-MRI datasets were processed by Omni. Kinetics software, using the extended tofts model (ETM) and exchange model (ECM) to yield pharmacokinetic parameters and their histogram features. Changes in quantitative perfusion parameters were compared between the two groups. Scientific research platform ( https://medresearch.shukun.net/ ) was used for radiomics analysis. A total of 1874 radiomic features were extracted for each tumor by manually segmentation of T1WI and Contrast-enhanced of T1WI (Ce-T1WI) fat inhibition sequence. The performances of radiomics models were evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve. Based on radiomics features, survival curves were generated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to evaluate patient outcomes. P < 0.05 was set for the significance threshold.
resultsThe V
conclusionsDCE-MRI quantitative analysis and MRI-based radiomics may be helpful in assessing the early response to MWA in patients with LCs.
