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

backgroundTypical signs of heart failure (HF), like increased cardiothoracic ratio (CTR) and pleural effusion, can be seen on X-ray. Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help in the early and quicker diagnosis of HF.

objectivesThe study's goal was to demonstrate that the AI interpretation of chest X-rays can assist the clinician in diagnosing HF.

methodsPatients older than 45 years were included in the study. The study analyzed 10 100 deidentified outpatient chest X-rays by AI algorithm. The AI-generated report was later verified by an independent radiologist. Patients with CTR > 0.5 and pleural effusion were marked as potential HF. Flagged patients underwent confirmatory tests, and those labeled as negative also underwent further investigations to rule out HF.

resultsOut of 10 100, the AI algorithm detected 183 (1.8%) patients with increased CTR and pleural effusion on chest X-rays. One hundred and six out of 183 underwent diagnostic tests. Eighty-two (77%) out of 106 were diagnosed with HF according to current guidelines. From the remaining 9917 patients, 106 patients were randomly selected. Nine (8%) out of them were diagnosed with HF. The positive predictive value of AI for diagnosing HF is 77%, and the negative predictive value is 91%. More than half (54.9%) of newly diagnosed patients had HF with preserved ejection fraction.

conclusionHF is a risky condition with nonspecific symptoms that are difficult to diagnose, especially in the early stages. Using AI assistance for X-ray interpretation can be helpful for early diagnosis of HF especially HF with preserved ejection fraction.
