Highlight the statistical endpoint or mechanism
Select the exact paragraph reporting hazard ratios, odds ratios, p-values, or physiological mechanisms.
Translate clinical trial methods, statistical endpoints, and PubMed studies into plain language.
Highlight hazard ratios, confidence intervals, inclusion criteria, or biochemical pathways on PubMed, NEJM, and medical textbooks to get clear, contextual explanations on screen.
Best fit
Best for medical students, clinicians, researchers, and informed patients reading peer-reviewed clinical studies and biomedical literature.
On-screen walkthrough
How this looks on a real webpage.
Instead of switching tabs and rebuilding context, highlight the exact passage that slowed you down and press your shortcut (default: Ctrl+Shift+X or Cmd+Shift+X on macOS, fully customizable in settings).
1. Highlighted on page (PubMed Central — Phase 3 Randomized Clinical Trial (Results))
The primary composite endpoint occurred in 142 patients (8.4%) in the intervention group and 198 patients (11.7%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 0.71; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.57 to 0.88; P=0.002).
Ctrl+Shift+X“Explain the difference between the relative risk reduction and absolute risk reduction here, and calculate the NNT.”
2. Vezz me on-screen answer overlay
1. Relative Risk Reduction (RRR): A hazard ratio of `0.71` means a ~29% relative reduction in the rate of the primary endpoint (`1 - 0.71`), with the 95% CI wholly below 1.0 (`0.57` to `0.88`), making it statistically significant (`P=0.002`).
2. Absolute Risk Reduction (ARR): `11.7% - 8.4% = 3.3%` absolute reduction over the study period.
3. Number Needed to Treat (NNT): `1 / 0.033 ≈ 31`. Roughly 31 patients need to be treated with the intervention over the trial duration to prevent 1 primary composite event.
3. Suggested follow-up questions in thread
- “Why is a composite endpoint used here, and how could that skew clinical interpretation?”
- “What does the width of the 95% confidence interval (`0.57 to 0.88`) tell us about precision?”
- “Summarize this finding in plain language for a study flashcard.”
