AI-assisted human clinical reasoning in the ICU: beyond "to err is human".
Article in Frontiers in artificial intelligence, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Diagnostic errors pose a significant public health challenge, affecting nearly 800,000 Americans annually, with even higher rates globally. In the ICU, these errors are particularly prevalent, leading to substantial morbidity and mortality. The clinical reasoning process aims to reduce diagnostic uncertainty and establish a plausible differential diagnosis but is often hindered by cognitive load, patient complexity, and clinician burnout. These factors contribute to cognitive biases that compromise diagnostic accuracy. Emerging technologies like large language models (LLMs) offer potential solutions to enhance clinical reasoning and improve diagnostic precision. In this perspective article, we explore the roles of LLMs, such as GPT-4, in addressing diagnostic challenges in critical care settings through a case study of a critically ill patient managed with LLM assistance.
