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

Patients and their surgeons face a complex and evolving set of choices in the process of shared decision making. The plan of care must be tailored to individual patient risk factors and values, though objective estimates of risk can be elusive, and these risk factors are often modifiable and can alter the plan of care. Machine learning can perform real-time predictions of outcomes, though these technologies are limited by usability and interpretability. Gamification, or the use of game elements in non-game contexts, may be able to incorporate machine learning technology to help patients optimize their pre-operative risks, reduce in-hospital complications, and hasten recovery. This article proposes a theoretical mobile application to help guide decision making and provide evidence-based, tangible goals for patients and surgeons with the goal of achieving the best possible operative outcome that aligns with patient values.
