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) is transforming healthcare with applications that can surpass human performance in prevention, detection, and treatment. This systematic review aimed to collect and assess the impact and success of AI technologies across various healthcare domains. Methods: A systematic search of major databases (including PubMed, Scopus, and ISI) was conducted for articles published up to 2023. Keywords related to AI-driven disease detection, classification, and prognosis were used. Non-English articles or those with inaccessible full texts were excluded. Data was extracted by two researchers, and the quality of selected articles was evaluated based on the strengths and limitations stated by the authors. Results: In total, 123 articles were included. AI contributions were categorized into three areas. For disease detection (n=75), Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was the most frequent topic (n=18), followed by oncology. Chest X-rays were the most common input (n=15). In disease classification (n=23), oncology (especially breast cancer) was the most researched field (n=7), primarily using breast imaging. For prediction and prevention (n=25), oncology was again the most studied category, with clinical and laboratory parameters being the most utilized input (n=12). Conclusion: AI-driven clinical decision support systems (CDSS) exhibit strong diagnostic and prognostic accuracy in imaging and laboratory settings. However, many models function as "black boxes," which limits interpretability and clinician trust. Data bias and challenges in integrating AI tools into practice also persist. The findings suggest that future work should focus on explainable AI and rigorous real-world validation to safely implement these tools in healthcare.
