Exploring the use of ChatGPT in OBGYN: a bibliometric analysis of the first ChatGPT-related publications.
Article in Archives of gynecology and obstetrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purposeLittle is known about the scientific literature regarding the new revolutionary tool, ChatGPT. We aim to perform a bibliometric analysis to identify ChatGPT-related publications in obstetrics and gynecology (OBGYN). STUDY
designA bibliometric study through PubMed database. We mined all ChatGPT-related publications using the search term "ChatGPT". Bibliometric data were obtained from the iCite database. We performed a descriptive analysis. We further compared IF among publications describing a study vs. other publications.
resultsOverall, 42 ChatGPT-related publications were published across 26 different journals during 69 days. Most publications were editorials (52%) and news/briefing (22%), with only one (2%) research article identified. Five (12%) publications described a study performed. No ChatGPT-related publications in OBGYN were found. The leading journal by the number of publications was Nature (24%), followed by Lancet Digital Health and Radiology (7%, for both). The main subjects of publications were ChatGPT's scientific writing quality (26%) and a description of ChatGPT (26%) followed by tested performance of ChatGPT (14%), authorship and ethical issues (10% for both topics).In a comparison of publications describing a study performed (n = 5) vs. other publications (n = 37), mean IF was lower in the study-publications (mean 6.25 ± 0 vs. 25.4 ± 21.6, p < .001).
conclusionsThe study highlights main trends in ChatGPT-related publications. OBGYN is yet to be represented in this literature.
