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

Pelvic floor ultrasound provides a clear depiction of pelvic floor structures and their spatial anatomical relationships, enabling enhanced observation of pelvic organ function and position. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into medical imaging has revolutionized the automatic analysis of imaging data, offering efficient and accurate preprocessing and analysis. This technological advance addresses challenges associated with traditional pelvic floor ultrasound, such as reliance on operator's experience, time-intensive manual measurements, and significant potential for human error. Current AI applications in pelvic floor ultrasound encompass automatic measurement of the angle of progress (AOP), automatic segmentation of the levator hiatus (LH), and automatic identification of the levator ani muscle (LAM). AI excels in mimicking human analysis, distilling patterns from reorganized data. This paper, grounded in a comprehensive literature review, outlines the principal aspects of pelvic floor ultrasound and its augmentation through AI, highlighting the application value and progress of AI in this field.
