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

Neuroimaging has a key role in identifying small-vessel vasculitis from common diseases it mimics, such as multiple sclerosis. Oftentimes, a multitude of these conditions present similarly, and thus diagnosis is difficult. To date, there is no standardized method to differentiate between these diseases. This review identifies and presents existing scoring tools that could serve as a starting point for integrating artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) into the clinical decision-making process for these rare diseases. A scoping literature review of EMBASE and MEDLINE included 114 articles to evaluate what criteria exist to diagnose small-vessel vasculitis and common mimics. This paper presents the existing criteria of small-vessel vasculitis conditions and mimics them to guide the future integration of AI/ML algorithms to aid in diagnosing these conditions, which present similarly and non-specifically.
