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

To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of machine learning-assisted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting cognitive impairment among Parkinson's disease (PD) patients through a systematic review and meta-analysis. We systematically searched for studies that applied machine learning algorithms to MRI data for diagnosing PD with mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI). Data were extracted and synthesized to calculate pooled sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio (PLR) and negative diagnostic likelihood ratio (NLR), and diagnostic odds ratios (DOR). A bivariate random-effects model and summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curves were employed for statistical analysis. The quality of studies was assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) instrument. The publication bias was investigated through Deeks' funnel plot. All statistical analyses were conducted using Stata 14.0. The pooled sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing PD-MCI using machine learning-assisted MRI were 0.82 (95% CI: 0.75-0.87) and 0.81 (95% CI: 0.73-0.87), respectively. The PLR was 4.28 (95% CI: 2.93-6.27), and the NLR was 0.23 (95% CI: 0.16-0.32), indicating a high diagnostic accuracy. The area under the curve (AUC) for the SROC was 0.85 (95% CI: 0.82-0.88). Quality assessment using the QUADAS-2 tool showed a predominantly low risk of bias among the studies, and the Deeks' funnel plot suggested no significant publication bias (
