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

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) has gained widespread attention because of its potential applications in the clinical management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, bibliometric analyses of the literature published in this field are currently lacking. This study aimed to characterize the development trends and identify research hotspots in the application of AI to IBD through a bibliometric approach. Methods: Literature related to the application of AI in IBD, published between 2000 and 2024, was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. Microsoft Office Excel 2021 was used to analyze and visualize the annual number of publications. Charticulator was utilized to create country cross chord charts. CiteSpace was employed to visualize collaboration networks among authors, institutions, and countries, generate timeline visualizations and perform a burst analysis of references and keywords. Results: The bibliometric analysis included 1,136 publications published between the years 2000 and 2024. The number of annual publications showed a rapid growth trend. The USA ( Conclusion: A growing number of researchers have engaged in exploring the application of AI in IBD, with the USA contributing the most to this field. Currently, the research hotspots mainly involve radiomics, endoscopy, NLP, and personalized medicine. This study provides valuable information for researchers evaluating the application of AI in IBD.
