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

Background and study aims: The Mayo Endoscopic Subscore (MES) is widely utilized for assessing mucosal activity in ulcerative colitis (UC). Artificial intelligence has emerged as a promising tool for enhancing diagnostic precision and addressing interobserver variability. This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of ChatGPT-4, a multimodal large language model, in identifying and grading endoscopic images of UC patients using the MES. Patients and methods: Real-world endoscopic images of UC patients were reviewed by an expert consensus board. Each image was graded based on the MES. Only images that were uniformly graded were subsequently provided to three inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) specialists and ChatGPT-4. Severity gradings of the IBD specialists and ChatGPT-4 were compared with assessments made by the expert consensus board. Results: Thirty of 50 images were graded with complete agreement among the experts. Compared with the consensus board, ChatGPT-4 gradings had a mean accuracy rate of 78.9% whereas the mean accuracy rate for the IBD specialists was 81.1%. Between the two groups, there was no statistically significant difference in mean accuracy rates ( Conclusions: ChatGPT-4 has the potential to assess mucosal inflammation severity from endoscopic images of UC patients, without prior configuration or fine-tuning. Performance rates were comparable to those of IBD specialists.
