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

Recent advances in generative artificial intelligence (AI) have expanded its applications in diagnostic support within dermatology, but its clinical accuracy requires ongoing evaluation. This study compared the diagnostic performance of three advanced AI models, ChatGPT-4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, and Gemini 1.5 Pro, with that of board-certified dermatologists, using a dataset of 30 cases encompassing a variety of dermatological conditions. The AI models demonstrated diagnostic accuracy comparable to, and sometimes exceeding, that of the specialists, particularly in rare and complex cases. Statistical analysis revealed no significant difference in accuracy rates between the AI models and dermatologists, indicating that AI may serve as a valuable supplementary diagnostic tool in dermatological practice. Limitations include a small sample size and potential selection bias. However, these findings underscore the progress in AI's diagnostic capabilities, supporting further validation with larger datasets and diverse clinical scenarios to confirm its practical utility.
