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 T cell-inflamed gene expression profile (GEP) provides a biomarker for immunotherapy response across various cancers. However, specific biomarkers for immunotherapy response in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are lacking. In this study, we established a computed tomography (CT)-based radiomics model to predict the T cell-inflamed GEP and immunotherapy response in HCC. Methods: This retrospective, multicenter study included 270 patients with HCC, who were divided into training ( Results: The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the radiomics model for predicting GEP in the training and test sets were 0.824 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.757-0.892) and 0.827 (95% CI: 0.674-0.980), respectively. In the immunotherapy dataset, the response rate of liver lesions at 6 months was significantly higher in the GEP-high group than in the GEP-low group (48.1% Conclusions: This study provides the first CT-based radiomics model for predicting the T cell-inflamed GEP in HCC. This model highlights the potential of the T cell-inflamed GEP as a noninvasive biomarker to help guide immunotherapy selection.
