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 evaluate the feasibility of plaque-based radiomics extracted from high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI) data for assessing the short-term outcomes of endovascular treatment in patients with symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis.

methodsHR-MRI was performed on patients with symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis. Plaque-based radiomics describing the morphological features and pixel value of the image were extracted from the HR-MRI data. Demographic features were also collected. The short-term favorable outcome was defined by a postoperative residual stenosis rate <35% with the absence of perioperative complications. Univariate analysis was conducted to identify features associated with favorable outcomes. Based on the results of this analysis, a prediction model was developed using logistic regression. The performance of both clinical and radiomic models was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the curve (AUC).

resultsFrom January 2022 to December 2023, 42 consecutive patients with symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis were enrolled. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) revealed a more than 70% stenosis rate in these patients. The stents were implemented in all 42 patients; 21 (50%) of these were male, and the mean age of all patients was 52.74 ± 13.02 years. Thirty-five patients (83.33%) had impaired sensory or motor function of the limbs. In the univariate analysis, 11 morphologic or first-order radiomics features and five clinical features were initially identified as potentially associated with short-term favorable outcomes. Logistic multivariate analysis further indicated that shape-flatness (

conclusionPlaque-based radiomic features, which describe the shape and voxel characteristics extracted from HR-MRI data, are associated with the short-term outcomes of patients treated with stent implementation.
