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

There is growing interest in using AI-based algorithms to support clinician decision-making. An important consideration is how transparent complex algorithms can be for predictions, particularly with respect to imminent mortality in a hospital environment. Understanding the basis of predictions, the process used to generate models and recommendations, how to generalize models based on one patient population to another, and the role of oversight organizations such as the Food and Drug Administration are important topics. In this paper, we debate opposing positions regarding whether these algorithms are 'ready yet' for use today in clinical settings for physicians, patients and caregivers. We report voting results from participating audience members in attendance at the conference debate for each of these positions obtained real-time from a smartphone-based platform.
