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

Background: Uterine serous carcinoma (USC) and endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEC) are distinct subtypes of endometrial cancer with markedly different prognoses and management strategies. Accurate preoperative differentiation between USC and EEC is of great significance for tailoring surgical planning and adjuvant therapy. Purpose: To develop and validate a multiparametric MRI-based radiomics and deep learning (DL) model for preoperative distinguishing USC from EEC. Methods: A total of 210 patients (68 USCs and 142 EECs) from four hospitals who underwent preoperative MRI were enrolled in this retrospective study. Features from radiomics and deep learning were extracted using T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and contrast enhanced MRI (CE-MRI). The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analysis was employed to identify the most valuable features. Clinical-radiological characteristics, radiomics and DL features were constructed using a support vector machine (SVM) algorithm. The models were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results: The all-combined model of clinical-radiological characteristics, radiomics and DL features showed better discrimination ability than either alone. The all-combined model demonstrated superior classification performance, achieving an AUC of 0.957 (95% CI: 0.904-1.000) on the internal-testing set and an AUC of 0.880 (95% CI: 0.800-0.961) on the external-testing set. The DLR model demonstrated superior predictive performance compared to the clinical-radiological model, although the differences were not statistically significant in both the internal-testing set (AUC = 0.908 vs. 0.861, Conclusion: The integrated model, combining multiparametric MRI-based radiomics, deep learning features, and clinical-radiological characteristics, may be utilized for the preoperative differentiation of USC from EEC.
