Review in Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 26 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Randomized clinical trials are the gold standard for establishing the efficacy and safety of cardiovascular therapies. However, current pivotal trials are expensive, lengthy, and insufficiently diverse. Emerging artificial intelligence (AI) technologies can potentially automate and streamline clinical trial operations. This review describes opportunities to integrate AI throughout a trial's life cycle, including designing the trial, identifying eligible patients, obtaining informed consent, ascertaining physiological and clinical event outcomes, interpreting imaging, and analyzing or disseminating the results. Nevertheless, AI poses risks, including generating inaccurate results, amplifying biases against underrepresented groups, and violating patient privacy. Medical journals and regulators are developing new frameworks to evaluate AI research tools and the data they generate. Given the high-stakes role of randomized trials in medical decision making, AI must be integrated carefully and transparently to protect the validity of trial results.
