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

When new technology is introduced into healthcare, novel ethical dilemmas arise in the human-machine interface. As artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and big data can exhaust human oversight and memory capacity, this will give rise to many of these new dilemmas.Technology has little if any ethical status but is inevitably interwoven with human activity and thus may serve to allow qualitative and quantitative disruption of human performance and interaction. We argue that personal integrity, justice of resource allocation and accountability of moral agency comprise three themes that characterize ethical dilemmas that arise with development and application of AI. These themes are important to address in parallel to further evolution of AI in health care for ethical practice of healthcare.
