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 predict tumor micro-infiltration (TMI) within glioblastoma (GBM) peritumoral edema (PTE) using MRI for postoperative radiation planning.

methodsStudy cohort consisted of a training group (TG) with 50 GBM and 50 brain metastasis tumor cases, a validation group (VG) with 25 GBM and 19 meningioma cases, and an image-pathology point-to-point VG (IPVG) with 10 additional GBM cases. Besides univariate analysis of gray-level histogram parameters (GLHP) of peritumoral edema (PTE) from contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (CE-T1WI), T2 fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (T2FLAIR), and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps, LASSO regression removed collinear parameters. Then, forward stepwise logistic regression, SVM, and random forest were used to build TMI prediction models in PTE, with efficiency evaluated via ROC curves. In the IPVG, the coincidence rate between Python-based TMI predictions and biopsy pathology results was calculated.

resultsUnivariate analysis in the TG revealed that GLHP differences between GBM and BM PTE belts were prominent within 3 cm of PTE. After removing collinear parameters, the ADC map or CE-T1WI-based prediction model outperformed the T2FLAIR-based one. The model with the 1-cm GBM PTE belt and 2-cm BM PTE belt pairing showed superior discrimination. Incorporating ADC and CE-T1WI parameters, the RF model with 6 parameters (Ratio-maxi-enhancedT1/mean-enhancedT1, Ratio-miniADC/meanADC, etc.) demonstrated the best discrimination than other models, with an ROC curve (AUC) of 0.836 in the TG and 0.844 in the VG. In the IPVG, the TMI prediction model had an overall accuracy of 81.25%.

conclusionThe multiparametric RF model preoperative MRI can predict the TMI within PTE of GBM.
