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 adoption and scaling of technology in public health settings in the Global South have traditionally been challenging. The introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has exacerbated the challenges, but AI also brings with it exciting new frontiers. India is a large, diverse country that encapsulates well the challenges and opportunities for AI in the Global South. Here, we describe the landscape for AI as a force for driving public health outcomes in India and the critical role in this played by technology platforms. We give examples of our own work in Tuberculosis and infant health to illustrate how AI can be fruitfully integrated into large-scale platforms in order to meaningfully address gaps in public health. Finally, we point out the importance of learning lessons from early deployments on these platforms, despite the varying levels of AI maturity and readiness across modalities.
