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

backgroundGangrenous cholecystitis (GC) is a serious clinical condition associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Machine learning (ML) has significant potential in addressing the diverse characteristics of real data. We aim to develop an explainable and cost-effective predictive model for GC utilizing ML and Shapley Additive explanation (SHAP) algorithm.

resultsThis study included a total of 1006 patients with 26 clinical features. Through 5-fold CV, the best performing integrated learning model, XGBoost, was identified. The model was interpreted using SHAP to derive the feature subsets WBC, NLR, D-dimer, Gallbladder width, Fibrinogen, Gallbladder wallness, Hypokalemia or hyponatremia, these subsets comprised the final diagnostic prediction model.

conclusionsThe study developed a explainable predictive tool for GC at an early stage. This could assist doctors to make quick surgical intervention decisions and perform surgery on patients with GC as soon as possible.
