Effect of an artificial intelligence-based quality improvement system on efficacy of a computer-aided detection system in colonoscopy: a four-group parallel study
Abstract
Background Tandem colonoscopy studies have found that about one in five adenomas are missed at colonoscopy. It remains debatable whether the combination of a computer-aided polyp detection (CADe) system with a computer-aided quality improvement (CAQ) system for real-time monitoring of withdrawal speed results in additional benefits in adenoma detection or if the synergetic effect may be harmed due to excessive visual burden resulting from information overload. This study aimed to evaluate the interaction effect on improving the adenoma detection rate (ADR). Methods This single-center, randomized, four-group, parallel, controlled study was performed at Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University. Between 1 July and 15 October 2020, 1076 patients were randomly allocated into four treatment groups: control 271, CADe 268, CAQ 269, and CADe plus CAQ (COMBO) 268. The primary outcome was ADR. Results The ADR in the control, CADe, CAQ, and COMBO groups was 14.76 % (95 % confidence interval [CI] 10.54 to 18.98), 21.27 % (95 %CI 16.37 to 26.17), 24.54 % (95 %CI 19.39 to 29.68), and 30.60 % (95 %CI 25.08 to 36.11), respectively. The ADR was higher in the COMBO group compared with the CADe group (21.27 % vs. 30.6 %, P = 0.024, odds ratio [OR] 1.284, 95 %CI 1.033 to 1.596) but not compared with the CAQ group (24.54 % vs. 30.6 %, P = 0.213, OR 1.309, 95 %CI 0.857 to 2.000, respectively). Conclusions CAQ significantly improved the efficacy of CADe in a four-group, parallel, controlled study. No sig…

In Yao et al. 2022, the COMBO group had a notably higher ADR than the CADe-alone group.
“The findings indicated that the group utilizing both CADe and CAQ systems displayed a notably higher ADR compared to the group using CADe alone.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
