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

objectiveTo assess the publications' bibliographic features and look into how the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and its subfields in radiomics has affected the growth of oncology.

methodsThe researchers conducted a search in the Web of Science (WoS) for scientific publications in cancer pertaining to AI and radiomics, published in English from 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2024.The research included a scientometric methodology and comprehensive data analysis utilising scientific visualization tools, including the Bibliometrix R software package, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace. Bibliometric techniques utilised were co-authorship, co-citation, co-occurrence, citation burst, and performance Analysis.

resultsThe final study encompassed 4,127 publications authored by 5,026 individuals and published across 597 journals. China (2087;50.57%) and USA (850;20.6%) were the two most productive countries. The authors with the highest publication counts were Tian Jie (60) and Cuocolo Renato (30). Fudan University (169;4.09%) and Sun Yat-sen University (162;3.93%) were the most active institutions. The foremost journals were Frontiers in Oncology and Cancer. The predominant author keywords were radiomics, artificial intelligence, and oncology research.

conclusionInvestigations into the integration of AI with radiomics in oncology remain nascent, with numerous studies concentrating on biology, diagnosis, treatment, and cancer risk evaluation.
