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: Long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) improves outcomes in selected patients with severe chronic hypoxemia, but conventional LTOT uses fixed oxygen flow prescriptions that may not reflect changing needs during activity, sleep, or exacerbations. AI and automated oxygen systems may support continuous peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO Objective: This systematic review synthesized peer-reviewed evidence on AI-driven and automated systems for continuous SpO Methods: This review followed PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) 2020 and PRISMA-S (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses-Search). PubMed, IEEE Xplore, Springer Link, ACM Digital Library, and supplementary MDPI publisher-level searches were searched for English-language peer-reviewed studies published during 2000 to January 2025. Eligible studies evaluated AI-driven or automated systems for continuous SpO Results: Of 928 records (926 from databases or platforms and 2 from manual reference screening), 912 remained after deduplication, 61 full texts were assessed, and 8 studies were included. Five studies evaluated AI-based systems and 3 evaluated automated non-AI oxygen delivery. AI models reported SpO Conclusions: AI-driven and automated LTOT-relevant systems address complementary gaps. AI approaches show promise for signal interpretation and personalized prediction, whereas rule-based automated systems have stronger near-term clinical evidence for oxygen titration. Evidence is limited by small study numbers, heterogeneous outcomes, limited COPD or home LTOT validation, and sparse equity reporting. Future work should prioritize longitudinal validation in diverse LTOT populations, prespecified equity outcomes, failure-mode reporting, and hybrid architectures combining AI signal intelligence with safety-critical automated control.
