Expert-Designed Fact Sheets and AI-Based Analysis of Patient Symptoms to Combat Diagnostic Delays in Inherited Metabolic Diseases.

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.
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 importance of early diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) is well known, as it allows early intervention to prevent or reduce complications and improve prognosis, since many of these disorders are treatable. However, diagnosis can still be delayed, and many patients remain undiagnosed. Reducing diagnosis delays is a primary goal of the French Ministry of Health and Prevention (Rare Disease Department). This article describes a national initiative coordinated by the French network for IMD, "Filière G2m." Sixty-seven IMD experts from various reference and competence centers in France drafted one-page summaries dedicated to specific diseases or groups of diseases in the field of IMDs, covering the full spectrum of IMDs. These documents include keywords summarizing clinical signs which, when considered alongside data from routine biological or imaging tests, should suggest the diagnosis of an IMD. A total of 48 summaries have been drafted and are available on the Filière G2m website. To assess the accuracy and relevance of the diagnostic fact sheets, we selected 4 IMDs and compared their content with the clinical profiles of patients followed at Necker-Enfants Malades Hospital, using Natural Language Processing tools to automatically extract patient phenotypes from medical records (Dr Warehouse). We found a strong alignment between the fact sheets and the real-world clinical data from these patients. This tool will enable patients to recognize themselves in an IMD. General practitioners will use these documents alongside diagnostic aid software. It may also support new artificial intelligence-based technologies to identify undiagnosed patients in hospital databases.
