The significance of PET/CT combined with machine learning models for the classification of lymphoma involvement and metastases in enlarged lymph nodes.

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
Objective: Accurate differentiation between lymphoma involvement and lymph node metastasis poses significant diagnostic challenges due to overlapping imaging characteristics. This study evaluates the discriminative capacity of PET/CT metabolic profiling integrated with machine learning for nodal pathology classification. Methods: We analyzed 247 lymph nodes from patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL, n=39) and solid tumor metastases (n=46). Multivariable logistic regression identified key PET/CT biomarkers, including metabolic parameters and anatomical features. Three machine learning models-Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN)-were trained using these predictors. Results: Lymphomatous nodes exhibited significantly elevated metabolic activity (SUV Conclusion: Integration of PET/CT-derived SUV
