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

Clinically significant portal hypertension is associated with an increased risk of developing gastroesophageal varices and hepatic decompensation. Hepatic venous pressure gradient measurement and esophagogastroduodenoscopy are the gold-standard methods for assessing clinically significant portal hypertension and gastroesophageal varices, respectively. However, invasiveness, cost, and feasibility limit their widespread use, especially if repeated and serial evaluations are required to assess the efficacy of pharmacotherapy. Artificial intelligence describes a range of techniques that allow machines to perform tasks typically thought to require human reasoning and problem-solving skills. Artificial intelligence has made great strides in the field of medicine, and is also involved in portal hypertension diagnosis. Artificial intelligence tools will potentially transform our practice by leveraging massive amounts of data to personalize care to the right patient, in the right amount, at the right time. This review focuses on the recent advances in artificial intelligence for the noninvasive diagnosis of portal hypertension and gastroesophageal varices and monitoring of risk assessment of its complications in clinical practice.
