Visualization analysis of research hotspots and trends in MRI-based artificial intelligence in rectal cancer.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Rectal cancer (RC) is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide. With the development of artificial intelligence (AI), the application of AI in preoperative evaluation and follow-up treatment of RC based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been the focus of research in this field. This review was conducted to develop comprehensive insight into the current research progress, hotspots, and future trends in AI based on MRI in RC, which remains to be studied. Methods: Literature related to AI based on MRI and RC, as of November 2023, was obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection database. Visualization and bibliometric analyses of publication quantity and content were conducted to explore temporal trends, spatial distribution, collaborative networks, influential articles, keyword co-occurrence, and research directions. Results: A total of 177 papers (152 original articles and 25 reviews) were identified from 24 countries/regions, 351 institutions, and 81 journals. Since 2019, the number of studies on this topic has rapidly increased. China and the United States have contributed the highest number of publications and institutions, cultivating the most intimate collaborative relationship. The highest number of articles derive from Sun Yat-sen University, while Frontiers in Oncology has published the highest number of relevant articles. Research on MRI-based AI in this field has mainly focused on preoperative diagnosis and prediction of treatment efficacy and prognosis. Conclusions: This study provides an objective and comprehensive overview of the publications on MRI-based AI in RC and identifies the present research landscape, hotspots, and prospective trends in this field, which can provide valuable guidance for scholars worldwide.
