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

backgroundCardiovascular disease affects the carotid arteries, coronary arteries, aorta and the peripheral arteries. Radiomics involves the extraction of quantitative data from imaging features that are imperceptible to the eye. Radiomics analysis in cardiovascular disease has largely focused on CT and MRI modalities. This scoping review aims to summarise the existing literature on radiomic analysis techniques in cardiovascular disease.

methodsMEDLINE and Embase databases were searched for eligible studies evaluating radiomic techniques in living human subjects derived from CT, MRI or PET imaging investigating atherosclerotic disease. Data on study population, imaging characteristics and radiomics methodology were extracted.

resultsTwenty-nine studies consisting of 5753 patients (3752 males) were identified, and 78.7% of patients were from coronary artery studies. Twenty-seven studies employed CT imaging (19 CT carotid angiography and 6 CT coronary angiography (CTCA)), and two studies studied PET/CT. Manual segmentation was most frequently undertaken. Processing techniques included voxel discretisation, voxel resampling and filtration. Various shape, first-order, second-order and higher-order radiomic features were extracted. Logistic regression was most commonly used for machine learning.

conclusionMost published evidence was feasibility/proof of concept work. There was significant heterogeneity in image acquisition, segmentation techniques, processing and analysis between studies. There is a need for the implementation of standardised imaging acquisition protocols, adherence to published reporting guidelines and economic evaluation.
