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

backgroundNon-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) has a high risk of recurrence, and multiple surgeries increase the disease burden on patients. Using computed tomography (CT)-based machine learning, this study established a pre-treatment recurrence prediction model incorporating tumor and peritumoral fat characteristics. This approach may guide early clinical interventions.

methodsIn this retrospective study, 208 NMIBC patients who underwent enhanced CT before transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) with intravesical chemotherapy were collected from two hospitals. The radiomics features were extracted from the intratumoral region and peritumoral fat region (5 mm), followed by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) selection. Three radiomics models were developed: intratumoral, peritumoral-fat, and combined intratumoral-peritumoral model. Kaplan-Meier analysis assessed the association between radiomics features and recurrence-free survival. Cox analyses identified clinical risk factors integrated with radiomics score into a clinical-radiomics nomogram. Time-dependent ROC assessed the nomogram's predictive performance, and decision curve analysis evaluated its clinical utility.

resultsThe combined model based on logistic regression demonstrated superior discrimination, with area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.88 in the test set and 0.82 in the external validation set. The clinical-radiomics nomogram exhibited optimal performance in predicting early recurrence for NMIBC, with time-AUC values of 0.86 and 0.84 in the test and external validation sets, respectively. The nomogram showed better calibration and reclassification than the clinical model (net reclassification improvement, 0.736; p < 0.05).

conclusionsThe integrated radiomics-clinical model enhances the predictive capability compared with individual models, demonstrating significant value in predicting early recurrence of NMIBC. This approach offers a novel predictive strategy for assessing NMIBC recurrence risk.
