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

Over the past few years, mobile health applications (mHealth apps) have gained popularity regarding the management of chronic conditions, such as diabetes, as they are considered to enhance follow-up and treatment. Indeed, these applications are powerful tools that support individualised pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical care by remotely monitoring the patient's health status in real-time. Nevertheless, concerns have been raised regarding trust and trustworthiness towards their use, in particular, when they are powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI). Trust in AI is a multifaceted notion that encompasses aspects such as reliance, risk, as well as ethical principles (e.g., respect for human autonomy and prevention of harm). In this paper, we provide an analysis of trust and trustworthiness in AI-powered mHealth apps for diabetes through the lens of philosophy and risk analysis to promote the patient's well-being.
