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

Machine learning (ML) is a rapidly rising research tool in biomedical sciences whose applications include segmentation, classification, disease detection, and outcome prediction. With respect to traditional statistical methods, ML algorithms have the potential to learn and improve their predictive performance when fed with large data sets without the need of being specifically programmed. In recent years, this technology has been increasingly applied for tackling clinical issues in intracranial aneurysm (IA) research. Several studies attempted to provide reliable models for enhanced aneurysm detection. Convolutional neural networks trained with variable degrees of human interaction on data from diverse imaging modalities showed high sensitivity in aneurysm detection tasks, also outperforming expert image analysis. Algorithms were also shown to differentiate ruptured from unruptured IAs, with however limited clinical relevance. For prediction of rupture and stability assessment, ML was preliminarily shown to achieve better performance compared to conventional statistical methods and existing risk scores. ML-based complication and functional outcome prediction in the event of SAH have been more extensively reported, in contrast with periprocedural outcome investigation in unruptured IA patients. ML has the potential to be a game changer in IA patient management. Currently clinical translation of experimental results is limited.
