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: The invasive pulmonary adenocarcinoma and preinvasive-minimally invasive lesions usually need different surgical operation methods. This study aims to develop a clinical prediction model for preoperatively assessing invasiveness in solitary pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Methods: From January 2020 to December 2024, patients with solitary pulmonary nodules who underwent preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans in four centers were included. The patients were divided into a training dataset and an external testing dataset. Based on postoperative histopathology, patients were categorized into group A (atypical adenomatous hyperplasia, adenocarcinoma Results: Four hundred and forty-eight patients were included, with 335 patients in the training dataset (Group A: 156; Group B: 179) and 113 patients in the external testing dataset (Group A: 53; Group B: 60). Four independent predictors were identified in the training dataset: cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA 21-1) [odds ratio (OR): 4.175; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.253-13.904; P=0.02], maximum diameter (OR: 1.247; 95% CI: 1.143-1.361; P<0.001), density type (OR: 6.604; 95% CI: 3.519-12.393; P<0.001), and air bronchogram (OR: 3.149; 95% CI: 1.406-7.051; P=0.005). The nomogram model demonstrated a robust diagnostic performance with area under the curves (AUCs) of 0.925 (95% CI: 0.897-0.953) in the training cohort and 0.895 (95% CI: 0.829-0.961) in the testing cohort. Conclusions: The integration of tumor markers with CT imaging features enables preoperative noninvasive prediction of invasiveness in pulmonary adenocarcinoma.
