1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionArtificial intelligence (AI) has gained significant attention in dentistry due to its potential to revolutionize practice and improve patient outcomes. However, dentists' views and attitudes toward technology can affect the application of AI. This perception and attitude can be affected by the personality traits of individuals. This study aims to evaluate the perceptions and attitudes of dentistry students toward AI.

methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted on dental students at Ordu University Faculty of Dentistry, involving a sample of 83 students. The study utilized the Big Five 50 Test to evaluate personality traits and a 5-point Likert scale to gather data on 20 statements regarding AI in dentistry. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics software, and a chi-square test was employed to assess the relationship between the personality traits of dental students and their attitudes towards artificial intelligence, as well as the relationship between the gender of dental students and their attitudes towards artificial intelligence. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05.

resultsThe study involved 83 participants, with 29 male and 54 female participants. The most common personality traits were Openness and Agreeableness, whereas the least common was Extraversion. Participants found AI useful and believed it could help dentists evaluate radiographs. However, the least agreed statement was that they would trust AI more than a dentist in evaluating radiograph results. A statistically significant difference was found between personal traits of dental students and in expressions comparing dentists and AI. Males were more familiar with AI than females.

conclusionThis study found that attitudes towards AI in dentistry vary based on personality traits. Developing educational strategies tailored to these traits can help foster more positive attitudes and improve AI integration into dental practice.
