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

The rapidly evolving field of machine learning (ML), along with artificial intelligence in a broad sense, is revolutionising many areas of healthcare, including laboratory medicine. The amalgamation of the fields of ML and patient-based real-time quality control (PBRTQC) processes could improve the traditional PBRTQC and error detection algorithms in the laboratory. This narrative review discusses published studies on using ML for the detection of systematic errors, non-systematic errors, and combinations of different types of errors in clinical laboratories. The studies discussed used ML for detecting bias, the requirement for re-calibration, samples contaminated with intravenous fluid or EDTA, delayed sample analysis, wrong-blood-in-tube errors, interference or a combination of different types of errors, by comparing the performance of ML models with human validators or traditional PBRTQC algorithms. Advantages, limitations, the creation of standardised ML models, ethical and regulatory aspects and potential future developments have also been discussed in brief.
