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

Mining process models of medical behavior from electronic medical records is an effective way to optimize clinical pathways. However, clinical medical behavior is an extremely complex field with high nonlinearity and variability, and thus we need to adopt a more effective method. In this study, we developed a fuzzy process mining method for complex clinical pathways. Firstly, we designed a multi-level expert classification system with fuzzy values to preserve finer details. Secondly, we categorized medical events into long-term and temporary events for more specific data processing. Subsequently, we utilized electronic medical record (EMR) data of acute pancreatitis spanning 9 years, collected from a large general hospital in China, to evaluate the effectiveness of our method. The results demonstrated that our modeling process was simple and understandable, allowing for a more comprehensive representation of medical intricacies. Moreover, our method exhibited high patient coverage (>0.94) and discrimination (>0.838). These findings were corroborated by clinicians, affirming the accuracy and effectiveness of our approach.
