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

backgroundGastric cancer (GC) presents challenges in predicting treatment responses due to its patient-specific heterogeneity. Recently, liquid biopsies have emerged as a valuable data modality, offering essential cellular and molecular insights while facilitating the capture of time-sensitive information. This study aimed to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) technology to analyze longitudinal liquid biopsy data.

methodsWe collected a dataset from longitudinal liquid biopsies of 91 patients at Peking Cancer Hospital, spanning from July 2019 to April 2022. This dataset included 1895 tumor-related cellular images and 1698 tumor marker indices. Subsequently, we introduced the Dynamic-Aware Model (DAM) to predict responses to GC treatment. DAM incorporates dynamic data through AI-engineered components, facilitating an in-depth longitudinal analysis.

resultsUtilizing threefold cross-validation, DAM exhibited superior performance compared to traditional cell-counting methods, achieving an AUC of 0.807 in predicting GC treatment responses. In the test set, DAM maintained stable efficacy with an AUC of 0.802. Besides, DAM showed the capability to accurately predict treatment responses based on early treatment data. Moreover, DAM's visual analysis of attention mechanisms identified six dynamic visual features related to focus areas, which were strongly associated with treatment-response.

conclusionsThese findings represent a pioneering effort in applying AI technology to interpret longitudinal liquid biopsy data and employ visual analytics in GC. This approach provides a promising pathway toward precise response prediction and personalized treatment strategies for patients with GC.
