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

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming pancreaticobiliary endoscopy by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, procedural efficiency, and clinical outcomes. This narrative review explores AI's applications in endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), emphasizing its potential to address diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in pancreaticobiliary diseases. In EUS, AI improves pancreatic mass differentiation, malignancy prediction, and landmark recognition, demonstrating high diagnostic accuracy and outperforming traditional guidelines. In ERCP, AI facilitates precise biliary stricture identification, optimizes procedural techniques, and supports decision-making through real-time data integration, improving ampulla recognition and predicting cannulation difficulty. Additionally, predictive analytics help mitigate complications like post-ERCP pancreatitis. The future of AI in pancreaticobiliary endoscopy lies in multimodal data fusion, integrating imaging, genomic, and molecular data to enable personalized medicine. However, challenges such as data quality, external validation, clinician training, and ethical concerns-like data privacy and algorithmic bias-must be addressed to ensure safe implementation. By overcoming these challenges, AI has the potential to redefine pancreaticobiliary healthcare, improving diagnostic accuracy, therapeutic outcomes, and personalized care.
