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

backgroundArtificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a promising avenue for improving patient care and surgical outcomes in urological surgery. However, the extent of AI's impact in predicting and managing complications is not fully elucidated.

objectivesWe review the application of AI to foresee and manage complications in urological surgery, assess its efficacy, and discuss challenges to its use. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A targeted non-systematic literature search was conducted using the PubMed and Google Scholar databases to identify studies on AI in urological surgery and its complications. Evidence from the studies was synthesised.

resultsIncorporating AI into various facets of urological surgery has shown promising advancements. From preoperative planning to intraoperative guidance, AI is revolutionising the field, demonstrating remarkable proficiency in tasks such as image analysis, decision-making support, and complication prediction. Studies show that AI programmes are highly accurate, increase surgical precision and efficiency, and reduce complications. However, implementation challenges exist in AI errors, human errors, and ethical issues.

conclusionAI has great potential in predicting and managing surgical complications of urological surgery. Advancements have been made, but challenges and ethical considerations must be addressed before widespread AI implementation.
