Identifying Actionability as a Key Factor for the Adoption of 'Intelligent' Systems for Drug Safety: Lessons Learned from a User-Centred Design Approach.
Article in Drug safety, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introductionInformation technology (IT) plays an important role in the healthcare landscape via the increasing digitization of medical data and the use of modern computational paradigms such as machine learning (ML) and knowledge graphs (KGs). These 'intelligent' technical paradigms provide a new digital 'toolkit' supporting drug safety and healthcare processes, including 'active pharmacovigilance'. While these technical paradigms are promising, intelligent systems (ISs) are not yet widely adopted by pharmacovigilance (PV) stakeholders, namely the pharma industry, academia/research community, drug safety monitoring organizations, regulatory authorities, and healthcare institutions. The limitations obscuring the integration of ISs into PV activities are multifaceted, involving technical, legal and medical hurdles, and thus require further elucidation.
objectiveWe dissect the abovementioned limitations by describing the lessons learned during the design and implementation of the PVClinical platform, a web platform aiming to support the investigation of potential adverse drug reactions (ADRs), emphasizing the use of knowledge engineering (KE) as its main technical paradigm.
resultsTo this end, we elaborate on the related 'business processes' (i.e. operational processes) and 'user goals' identified as part of the PVClinical platform design process based on Design Thinking principles. We also elaborate on key challenges restricting the adoption of such ISs and their integration in the clinical setting and beyond.
conclusionsWe highlight the fact that beyond providing analytics and useful statistics to the end user, 'actionability' has emerged as the operational priority identified through the whole process. Furthermore, we focus on the needs for valid, reproducible, explainable and human-interpretable results, stressing the need to emphasize on usability.
