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: This study developed and validated a dynamic prediction model combining MRI features, clinical factors, and early treatment response to noninvasively predict long-term survival in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma patients undergoing triple therapy (hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy). Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 223 patients from two centers, with 127 in the training set and 96 in the external set, evaluating imaging features and constructing a dynamic nomogram to predict 1-year and 2-year survival. Model performance was evaluated via bootstrap resampling and external validation. Decision curve analysis and SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis were employed to assess clinical utility and model interpretability. An R/Shiny application was used for online deployment. Results: An imaging score was created based on five semantic features that suggest poor prognosis. The dynamic model, incorporating five semantic imaging features indicating poor prognosis, showed good discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility, especially when combining baseline and early treatment response. The predictive performance of the dynamic nomogram was numerically improved to that of BCLC staging and the traditional liver function grading system. SHAP analysis highlighted the imaging score as the most important predictor. The dynamic nomogram effectively stratified patients into low-, medium-, and high-risk groups, with significantly different survival outcomes. Conclusion: A dynamic nomogram model that integrates baseline features and therapeutic response provides a noninvasive and effective tool for predicting prognosis and stratifying risk in uHCC patients receiving triple therapy.
