Review in Neuroradiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Artificial intelligence (AI)-based tools are gradually blending into the clinical neuroradiology practice. Due to increasing complexity and diversity of such AI tools, it is not always obvious for the clinical neuroradiologist to capture the technical specifications of these applications, notably as commercial tools very rarely provide full details. The clinical neuroradiologist is thus confronted with the increasing dilemma to base clinical decisions on the output of AI tools without knowing in detail what is happening inside the "black box" of those AI applications. This dilemma is aggravated by the fact that currently, no established and generally accepted rules exist concerning best clinical practice and scientific and clinical validation nor for the medico-legal consequences in cases of wrong diagnoses. The current review article provides a practical checklist of essential points, intended to aid the user to identify and double-check necessary aspects, although we are aware that not all this information may be readily available at this stage, even for certified and commercially available AI tools. Furthermore, we therefore suggest that the developers of AI applications provide this information.
