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

Background: Healthcare institutions focus on improving the quality of life for end-users, with key performance indicators like access to essential medicines reflecting the effectiveness of management. Effective healthcare management involves planning, organizing, and controlling institutions built on human resources, data systems, service delivery, access to medicines, finance, and leadership. According to the World Health Organization, these elements must be balanced for an optimal healthcare system. Big data generated from healthcare institutions, including health records and genomic data, is crucial for smart staffing, decision-making, risk management, and patient engagement. Properly organizing and analysing this data is essential, and machine learning, a sub-field of artificial intelligence, can optimize these processes, leading to better overall healthcare management. Objectives: This review examines the major applications of machine learning in healthcare management, the algorithms frequently used in data analysis, their limitations, and the evidence-based benefits of machine learning in healthcare. Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, databases such as IEEE Xplore, ScienceDirect, ACM Digital Library, and SCOPUS were searched for eligible articles published between 2011 and 2021. Articles had to be in English, peer-reviewed, and include relevant keywords like healthcare, management, and machine learning. Results: Out of 51 relevant articles, 6 met the inclusion criteria. Identified algorithms include topic modelling, dynamic clustering, neural networks, decision trees, and ensemble classifiers, applied in areas such as electronic health records, chatbots, and multi-disease prediction. Conclusion: Machine learning supports healthcare management by aiding decision-making, processing big data, and providing insights for system improvements.
