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

Objective: To explore whether radiomics analysis of pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) captured by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) could discriminate unstable angina (UA) from stable angina (SA). Methods: In this single-center retrospective case-control study, coronary CT images and clinical data from 240 angina patients were collected and analyzed. Patients with unstable angina ( Results: In both training and validation cohorts, the integrated model (AUC = 0.87, 0.74) demonstrated superior discriminatory ability compared to the FAI model (AUC = 0.68, 0.51), clinical feature model (AUC = 0.84, 0.67), and radiomic model (AUC = 0.85, 0.73). The nomogram derived from the combined radiomic and clinical features exhibited excellent performance in diagnosing and predicting unstable angina. Calibration curves showed good fit for all four machine learning models. Decision curve analysis indicated that the integrated model provided better clinical benefit than the other three models. Conclusions: CCTA-based radiomics signature of PCAT is better than the FAI model in identifying unstable angina and stable angina. The integrated model constructed by combining radiomics and clinical features could further improve the diagnosis and differentiation ability of unstable angina.
