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

The last 2 years have marked the beginning of a golden age for natural language processing in medicine. The arrival of large language models (LLMs) and multimodal models have raised new opportunities and challenges for research and clinical practice. In rheumatology, a specialty rich in data and requiring complex decision-making, the use of these tools may transform diagnostic procedures, improve patient interaction and simplify data management, leading to more personalized and efficient healthcare outcomes. The objective of this article is to present an overview of the status of LLMs in the field of rheumatology while discussing some of the challenges ahead in this area of great potential.
