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

Two large randomized controlled trials of low-dose CT (LDCT)-based lung cancer screening (LCS) in high-risk smoker populations have shown a reduction in the number of lung cancer deaths in the screening group compared to a control group. Even if various countries are currently considering the implementation of LCS programs, recurring doubts and fears persist about the potentially high false positive rates, cost-effectiveness, and the availability of radiologists for scan interpretation. Artificial intelligence (AI) can potentially increase the efficiency of LCS. The objective of this article is to review the performances of AI algorithms developed for different tasks that make up the interpretation of LCS CT scans, and to estimate how these AI algorithms may be used as a second reader. Despite the reduction in lung cancer mortality due to LCS with LDCT, many smokers die of comorbid smoking-related diseases. The identification of CT features associated with these comorbidities could increase the value of screening with minimal impact on LCS programs. Because these smoking-related conditions are not systematically assessed in current LCS programs, AI can identify individuals with evidence of previously undiagnosed cardiovascular disease, emphysema or osteoporosis and offer an opportunity for treatment and prevention.
