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: Predicting the mutation status of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene based on an integrated positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) image of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a noninvasive, low-cost method which is valuable for targeted therapy. Although deep learning has been very successful in robotic vision, it is still challenging to predict gene mutations in PET/CT-derived studies because of the small amount of medical data and the different parameters of PET/CT devices. Methods: We used the advanced EfficientNet-V2 model to predict the EGFR mutation based on fused PET/CT images. First, we extracted 3-dimensional (3D) pulmonary nodules from PET and CT as regions of interest (ROIs). We then fused each single PET and CT image. The network model was used to predict the mutation status of lung nodules by the new data after fusion, and the model was weighted adaptively. The EfficientNet-V2 model used multiple channels to represent nodules comprehensively. Results: We trained the EfficientNet-V2 model through our PET/CT fusion algorithm using a dataset of 150 patients. The prediction accuracy of EGFR and non-EGFR mutations was 86.25% in the training dataset, and the accuracy rate was 81.92% in the validation set. Conclusions: Combined with experiments, the demonstrated PET/CT fusion algorithm outperformed radiomics methods in predicting EGFR and non-EGFR mutations in NSCLC.
