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

backgroundArtificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly explored in veterinary neurology for pattern recognition, prediction and clinical decision support, with relevance to comparative and translational neuroscience.

objectivesThis review examines AI applications in veterinary neurology, compares them with human neurology and evaluates cross-species technology transfer within a One Health framework.

methodsA narrative review synthesized evidence across AI domains in veterinary neurology, including neuroimaging and radiomics, electrophysiology and seizure detection or forecasting, gait and pain assessment, morphometric biomarker discovery, prognostic modelling and laboratory diagnostic tools. Human studies were considered to identify translational opportunities, methodological challenges and the value of transfer learning and domain adaptation.

resultsAvailable evidence suggests that AI holds promise for pattern recognition, prediction and decision support in veterinary neurology. Reported applications include canine brain tumour classification, spinal lesion grading, seizure monitoring and quantitative gait analysis, with encouraging performance. However, most applications remain proof-of-concept. The evidence base is dominated by retrospective single-centre studies with small samples, heterogeneous protocols and limited prospective or external validation. Model calibration, uncertainty reporting and clinically relevant error trade-offs are often insufficiently addressed. Transfer learning and domain adaptation may help overcome limited veterinary datasets, while naturally occurring neurological disease in dogs may also support refinement of human AI systems.

conclusionsAI in veterinary neurology is a promising but early field. Future progress will require multi-centre collaboration, standardized data practices, explainable and ethically governed models and stronger One Health partnerships to support safe translation.
