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

backgroundThe need for application expertise in natural language processing (NLP) is increasing in radiology. This way, in a complementary fashion to structured reporting using templates, the necessary database for quality assurance and continuous process optimization can be generated.

objectivePossibilities and challenges of the application of NLP from the radiology point of view are explained. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe requirements and expectations for NLP systems are identified and demonstrated using a case study.

resultsFor an effective use of this technology, NLP tasks for the interpretation of text using RadLex, an intuitive usage and feedback option as well as transparent quality of the NLP results are important. DISCUSSION: Using suitable NLP systems, targeted information can be extracted from large amounts of free text with manageable manual effort and high quality.
