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

objectiveTexture analysis is widely used in all walks of life, and also in medicine. This paper aims to discuss the value of texture analysis in postoperative recurrence of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH).

methodsA total of 173 patients with CSDH who were hospitalized in our hospital from January 2018 to August 2023 were selected . All the patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations before surgery. According to whether patients with CSDH have relapsed after surgery, the patients are divided into recurrence group and non-recurrence group. FireVoxel software (https://firevoxel.org) was used to manually delineate the region of interest on the largest level of the hematoma cavity during MRI plain scans and measure the texture parameters. The texture parameters with statistical difference were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve.

resultsHeterogeneity and entropy texture parameters in the recurrence group were statistically different from those in the nonrecurrence group (p<0.05). When the cut-off point of the heterogeneity parameter was 0.284, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of judging whether CSDH relapsed were 83.3%, 80.4%, and 80.7%, respectively.

conclusionTexture analysis of CSDH can provide a new method to judge the recurrence of patients with CSDH.
