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

Background: This study aimed to develop and validate radiomics-based nomograms for the identification of EGFR mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 313 NSCLC patients, who were randomly divided into training (n = 250) and validation (n = 63) groups. Radiomic features were extracted from Results: Among the radiomics models, the RF model showed the best performance with AUCs of 0.785 (95% CI, 0.726-0.844) and 0.776 (95% CI, 0.662-0.889) in the training and validation groups, respectively. The AUCs of the clinical and radiological models in both groups were 0.711 (95% CI, 0.645-0.776) and 0.758 (95% CI, 0.627-0.890), and 0.632 (95% CI, 0.564-0.699) and 0.677 (95% CI, 0.531-0.822), respectively. The combined model achieved the highest AUCs of 0.872 (95% CI, 0.829-0.915) and 0.831 (95% CI, 0.723-0.940) in the training and validation groups, respectively. The DeLong test confirmed the superiority of the combined model over the other three models. Both the calibration curve and the DCA indicated that the radiomics nomogram was consistent and clinically useful. Conclusions: Radiomics combined with machine learning and based on
