Clinical translation of a DWI-radiomics nomogram integrating serum biomarkers for pretreatment staging of cervical cancer.
Article in BMC medical imaging, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesNoninvasive and accurate prediction of clinical staging is crucial for patients with cervical cancer (CC). The aim of our study was to develop a clinical model, a diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)-based radiomics model, and a combined model for staging prediction. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively enrolled a total of 234 patients with histopathologically confirmed cervical cancer. The patients were divided into a training set (n = 163) and a testing set (n = 71). Radiomics features were extracted from tumor regions in DWI sequences. Clinical features were obtained through univariate and multivariate regression analyses. The clinical model and the DWI-based radiomics model were constructed using the selected features. A nomogram was also created to combine radiomics elements with clinical factors for predicting early-stage and advanced-stage CC.
resultsThe area under the curve (AUC) values for the radiomics signature, which included features from the tumor’s region of interest (ROI) based on DWI, were 0.928 in the training set and 0.801 in the testing set. When the nomogram combined clinical data with the radiomics signature, the AUC values improved to 0.949 for the training set and 0.847 for the testing set in predicting staging.
conclusionsThe novel nomogram, which integrates clinical factors with radiomics features extracted from DWI sequences, demonstrates good performance in staging CC, assisting clinicians in making informed treatment decisions.
