Modern Machine Learning Practices in Colorectal Surgery: A Scoping Review.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThe use of machine learning (ML) has revolutionized every domain of medicine. Surgeons are now using ML models for disease detection and outcome prediction with high precision. ML-guided colorectal surgeries are more efficient than conventional surgical procedures. The primary aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the latest research on "ML in colorectal surgery", with its viable applications.
methodsPubMed, Google Scholar, Medline, and Cochrane library were searched.
resultsAfter screening, 27 articles out of 172 were eventually included. Among all of the reviewed articles, those found to fit the criteria for inclusion had exclusively focused on ML in colorectal surgery, with justified applications. We identified existing applications of ML in colorectal surgery. Additionally, we discuss the benefits, risks, and safety issues.
conclusionsA better, more sustainable, and more efficient method, with useful applications, for ML in surgery is possible if we and data scientists work together to address the drawbacks of the current approach. Potential problems related to patients' perspectives also need to be resolved. The development of accurate technologies alone will not solve the problem of perceived unreliability from the patients' end. Confidence can only be developed within society if more research with precise results is carried out.
