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

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the new medical hot topic, being applied mainly in specialties with a strong imaging component. In the domain of gynecology, AI has been tested and shown vast potential in several areas with promising results, with an emphasis on oncology. However, fewer studies have been made focusing on urogynecology, a branch of gynecology known for using multiple imaging exams (IEs) and tests in the management of women's pelvic floor health. This review aims to illustrate the current state of AI in urogynecology, namely with the use of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) in diagnostics and as imaging tools, discuss possible future prospects for AI in this field, and go over its limitations that challenge its safe implementation.
