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.
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
In recent years, there has been enormous interest in applying artificial intelligence (AI) to radiology. Although some of this interest may have been driven by exaggerated expectations that the technology can outperform radiologists in some tasks, there is a growing body of evidence that illustrates its limitations in medical imaging. The true potential of the technique probably lies somewhere in the middle, and AI will ultimately play a key role in medical imaging in the future. The limitless power of computers makes AI an ideal candidate to provide the standardization, consistency, and dependability needed to support radiologists in their mission to provide excellent patient care. However, important roadblocks currently limit the expansion of this field in medical imaging. This article reviews some of the challenges and potential solutions to advance the field forward, with focus on the experience gained by hosting image-based competitions.
