Radiomics in PET/CT and HRCT for systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease: breakthroughs and future directions.
Article in Radiologia brasileira. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a multifaceted autoimmune condition that leads to fibrosis in the skin and various internal organs, including the lungs. One of its most serious complications is interstitial lung disease (ILD), which has a profound impact on the prognosis and on patient quality of life. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) plays a critical role by offering detailed structural information, whereas positron-emission tomography/CT (PET/CT) provides a deeper understanding of disease activity by combining metabolic and anatomical data. Radiomics expands on those modalities, extracting subtle imaging features undetectable by visual analysis, thereby enabling superior diagnostic accuracy, staging, and prognostic accuracy. This review explores the current applications of radiomics in SSc-ILD, highlighting breakthroughs such as the integration of artificial intelligence for early ILD prediction and risk stratification. Studies have demonstrated that radiomics is efficacious in overcoming traditional diagnostic limitations, enhancing precision in identifying the patterns of usual interstitial pneumonia and monitoring disease progression. When applied to PET/CT, especially that using advanced tracers, radiomics can complement HRCT by identifying metabolic biomarkers of ILD activity, thus supporting personalized treatment strategies. Although radiomics holds significant transformative potential, its routine use in clinical practice still faces several obstacles, such as the need for standardization, validation, and consistency across institutions. Future efforts will be focused on combining radiomics with genetic and molecular data, developing artificial intelligence-driven longitudinal models, and adopting multimodal approaches to improve the management of SSc-ILD. These advances promise to drive a shift toward precision medicine, ultimately improving outcomes for patients with this complex disease.
