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
backgroundThe Critical View of Safety (CVS) was proposed in 1995 to prevent bile duct injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). The achievement of CVS was evaluated subjectively. This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) system to evaluate CVS scores in LC. MATERIALS AND
methodsAI software was developed to evaluate the achievement of CVS using an algorithm for image classification based on a deep convolutional neural network. Short clips of hepatocystic triangle dissection were converted from 72 LC videos, and 23,793 images were labeled for training data. The learning models were examined using metrics commonly used in machine learning.
resultsThe mean values of precision, recall, F-measure, specificity, and overall accuracy for all the criteria of the best model were 0.971, 0.737, 0.832, 0.966, and 0.834, respectively. It took approximately 6 fps to obtain scores for a single image.
conclusionsUsing the AI system, we successfully evaluated the achievement of the CVS criteria using still images and videos of hepatocystic triangle dissection in LC. This encourages surgeons to be aware of CVS and is expected to improve surgical safety.
