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

objectiveTo assess the value of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI)-derived radiomic signatures and a combined model for non-invasive prediction of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression in bladder cancer (BCa).

methodsA total of 113 BCa patients with preoperative pelvic mpMRI were retrospectively enrolled. Radiomic features were extracted from T2WI, DWI, DCE and their combinations. Five machine learning algorithms were used to construct radiomic models. A combined model and a nomogram were developed by integrating radiomic signatures and clinicoradiological variables.

resultsThe T2WI + DWI + DCE-based RandomForest model achieved the best performance, with an AUC of 0.877 in the training cohort and 0.754 in the validation cohort. Age, risk group, and maximum tumor diameter were independent predictors of HER2 overexpression. The combined model yielded AUCs of 0.808 and 0.870 in the training and validation cohorts, respectively.

conclusionmpMRI radiomics can non-invasively predict HER2 expression in BCa. The combined nomogram shows good clinical utility, supporting personalized treatment planning for BCa patients.
