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

In the treatment of musculoskeletal tumors, surgeons sometimes experience discrepancies in the histological grade between the preoperative biopsy and resected tumor specimen, and the frequency of the histological discrepancies in cartilaginous tumors is higher than that in other bone tumors. For cartilaginous tumors, new diagnostic tools or methods for the prediction of histological grades are required to determine appropriate surgical procedures for each patient. Several radiological findings have been reported to be useful in differentiating benign cartilaginous tumors, atypical cartilaginous tumors/grade 1 chondrosarcomas, and high-grade chondrosarcomas. Furthermore, recent studies have shown the high accuracy of radiological scoring systems that integrate several radiological findings to predict the histological grades of cartilaginous tumors. Radiomics, which converts features in radiological images into quantitative data, enables the comprehensive analysis of cartilaginous tumors. Recent reports suggest that radiological diagnoses are highly reliable compared with preoperative histological diagnoses for predicting the final histological diagnosis. Based on previous reports, "radiological grading," i.e., the prediction of histological aggressiveness using radiological modalities, can be important for determining the surgical procedure, in addition to "histological grading." This review article discusses radiological findings, integrated radiological scoring systems, and radiomics-based predictions of histological grades in cartilaginous tumors.
