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

With the widespread use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare, how human physicians work with AI, a new colleague, has become an issue of increasing concern. This review systematically explores the collaboration between humans and AI in the medical field, focusing on the prevalent human-AI collaboration patterns, the task division mechanisms, and the evaluation metrics. Following the PRISMA guidelines for scoping reviews, we screened the relevant literature and finally included 85 journal papers. Our analysis reveals that human-AI collaboration patterns in healthcare tend to be associated with the inherent risk and automation level of medical tasks, and the collaboration process demonstrates a clear division of labor between human physicians and AI. Furthermore, the evaluation of the human-AI collaboration effect is shifting from single technical metrics (e.g., diagnostic accuracy) to multidimensional aspects incorporating clinical efficiency and user experience. Overall, this review presents collaboration patterns in various medical tasks and serves as a theoretical basis for optimizing the clinical workflows for human-AI collaboration.
