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

objectiveThis study aims to shed light on the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in the early detection and risk assessment of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). STUDY

designBibliometric analysis.

settingArticles related to AI in early identification and risk evaluation of NCDs from 2000 to 2024 were retrieved from the Scopus database.

methodsThis comprehensive bibliometric study focuses on a single database, Scopus and employs narrative synthesis for concise yet informative summaries. Microsoft Excel V.365 and VOSviewer software (V.1.6.20) were used to summarise bibliometric features.

resultsThe study retrieved 1745 relevant articles, with a notable surge in research activity in recent years. Core journals included Scientific Reports and IEEE Access, and core institutions included the Harvard Medical School and the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China, while core countries comprised China, the USA, India, the UK and Saudi Arabia. Citation trends indicated substantial growth and recognition of AI's impact on NCDs management. Frequent author keywords identified key research hotspots, including specific NCDs like Alzheimer's disease and diabetes. Risk assessment studies demonstrated improved predictions for heart failure, cardiovascular risk, breast cancer, diabetes and inflammatory bowel disease.

conclusionOur findings highlight the increasing role of AI in early detection and risk prediction of NCDs, emphasising its widening research impact and future clinical potential.
