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

Because it is an accessible and routine image test, medical personnel commonly use a chest X-ray for COVID-19 infections. Artificial intelligence (AI) is now widely applied to improve the precision of routine image tests. Hence, we investigated the clinical merit of the chest X-ray to detect COVID-19 when assisted by AI. We used PubMed, Cochrane Library, MedRxiv, ArXiv, and Embase to search for relevant research published between 1 January 2020 and 30 May 2022. We collected essays that dissected AI-based measures used for patients diagnosed with COVID-19 and excluded research lacking measurements using relevant parameters (i.e., sensitivity, specificity, and area under curve). Two independent researchers summarized the information, and discords were eliminated by consensus. A random effects model was used to calculate the pooled sensitivities and specificities. The sensitivity of the included research studies was enhanced by eliminating research with possible heterogeneity. A summary receiver operating characteristic curve (SROC) was generated to investigate the diagnostic value for detecting COVID-19 patients. Nine studies were recruited in this analysis, including 39,603 subjects. The pooled sensitivity and specificity were estimated as 0.9472 (
