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 CONSORT 2010 statement is a guideline that provides an evidence-based checklist of minimum reporting standards for randomized trials. With the rapid growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) based interventions in the past 10 years, the CONSORT-AI extension was created in 2020 to provide guidelines for AI-based randomized controlled trials (RCT). The Clin-STAR "Around the EQUATOR" series features existing reported standards while also highlighting the inherent complexities of research involving research of older participants. In this work, we propose that when designing AI-based RCTs involving older adults, researchers adopt a conceptual framework (CONSORT-AI-5Ms) designed around the 5Ms (Mind, Mobility, Medications, Matters most, and Multi-complexity) of Age-Friendly Healthcare Systems. Employing the 5Ms in this context, we provide a detailed rationale and include specific examples of challenges and potential solutions to maximize the impact and value of AI RCTs in an older adult population. By combining the original intent of CONSORT-AI with the 5Ms framework, CONSORT-AI-5Ms provides a patient-centered and equitable perspective to consider when designing AI-based RCTs to address the diverse needs and challenges associated with geriatric care.
