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

Objective: To provide an overview of potential biases resulting from the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) in otolaryngology and techniques to mitigate them. Data Sources: Literature review and expert opinion. Conclusions: AI promises to fundamentally transform medicine. This review highlights how biases can be introduced inadvertently at every level of AI application and development and how those biases risk undermining the intent and beneficence of these tools. A number of techniques which can be used to mitigate these biases are discussed. Ultimately, understanding the limitations and appropriate applications of this technology is critical to ensuring it is utilized equitably and efficaciously.
