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 explore the predictive value of intratumoral habitat heterogeneity for the early therapeutic response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 258 patients with HGSOC receiving [

resultsThe automatic segmentation model had a Dice coefficient of 0.82 and showed excellent performance in the validation cohort. The predictive efficacy of the subregion model in the test dataset was significantly better than that of the traditional model [Area Under the Curve (AUC): 0.83 vs. 0.71, P = 0.007. There was no statistically significant difference between the union model and the subregion model (AUC: 0.89 vs. 0.83, P = 0.077). Radiomics features involved in the modeling were significantly correlated with Ki67 before NACT (pre-Ki67) and the change value of Ki67 before NACT-after IDS(ΔKi67) respectively (P < 0.05).

conclusionThe PET/CT radiomics model based on habitat analysis can effectively predict the early response to NACT in patients with HGSOC, which can be explained by the tumor proliferative activity and provide reliable imaging biomarkers for individualized treatment decisions.
