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

aimTo evaluate the value of machine learning in assessing intraoperative blood loss by comparing associated outcomes with those of the gold standard.

backgroundIntraoperative bleeding is a leading cause of death in surgical patients and may be preventable through early and accurate assessment of blood loss. Machine learning models are used for measuring intraoperative hemorrhage with conventional assessment methods. However, outcome metrics vary across studies.

methodsA systematic review and meta-analysis. Data were retrieved from Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL, with searches conducted through August 18, 2025.

resultsTwelve studies were included. The pooled correlation coefficient between machine learning models and the gold standard for assessing intraoperative blood loss was high. DISCUSSION: Machine learning models demonstrate high accuracy and reliability in assessing intraoperative blood loss. Heterogeneity was high, likely attributable to differences in publication year, country, study subjects, sample type, and modeling method.

conclusionModels should be promoted for clinical use to improve blood loss assessment accuracy and to potentially reduce perioperative risk. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING: Novel machine learning models could enhance the accuracy and applicability of existing models, providing nursing staff with a more efficient tool for assessing blood loss. This will optimize the nursing decision-making process, reduce adverse events caused by underestimating or overestimating blood loss, and improve patient safety. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING POLICY: We provide a reference for exploring the application of artificial intelligence in other nursing fields, promoting interdisciplinary research and driving continuous innovation and progress in nursing.
