ChatGPT in the development of medical questionnaires. The example of the low back pain.
Article in European journal of translational myology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 2 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
In the last year, Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (ChatGPT), a web software based on artificial intelligence has been showing high potential in every field of knowledge. In the medical area, its possible application is an object of many studies with promising results. We performed the current study to investigate the possible usefulness of ChatGPT in assessing low back pain. We asked ChatGPT to generate a questionnaire about this clinical condition and we compared the obtained questions and results with the ones obtained by other validated questionnaires: Oswestry Disability Index, Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale, Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire, and Numeric Rating Scale for pain. We enrolled 20 subjects with low back pain and we found important consistencies among the validated questionnaires. The ChatGPT questionnaire showed an acceptable significant correlation only with Oswestry Disability Index and Quebec Back Pain Disability Scale. ChatGPT showed some peculiarities, especially in the assessment of quality of life and medical consultation and treatments. Our study shows that ChatGPT can help evaluate patients, including multilevel perspectives. However, its power is limited, and further research and validation are required.
