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.
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
backgroundMammography screening programs (MSP) have shown that breast cancer can be detected at an earlier stage enabling less invasive treatment and leading to a better survival rate. The considerable numbers of interval breast cancer (IBC) and the additional examinations required, the majority of which turn out not to be cancer, are critically assessed.
objectiveIn recent years companies and universities have used machine learning (ML) to develop powerful algorithms that demonstrate astonishing abilities to read mammograms. Can such algorithms be used to improve the quality of MSP?
methodThe original screening mammographies of 251 cases with IBC were retrospectively analyzed using the software ProFound AI® (iCAD) and the results were compared (case score, risk score) with a control group. The relevant current literature was also studied.
resultsThe distributions of the case scores and the risk scores were markedly shifted to higher risks compared to the control group, comparable to the results of other studies.
conclusionRetrospective studies as well as our own data show that artificial intelligence (AI) could change our approach to MSP in the future in the direction of personalized screening and could enable a significant reduction in the workload of radiologists, fewer additional examinations and a reduced number of IBCs; however, the results of prospective studies are needed before implementation.
