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

Aim: This study evaluated the understandability, actionability, and readability of text on anemia generated by artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots. Methods: This cross-sectional study compared texts generated by ChatGPT-3.5, Microsoft Copilot, and Google Gemini at three levels: "normal," "6th grade," and "PEMAT-P version." Additionally, texts retrieved from the top eight Google Search results for relevant keywords were included for comparison. All texts were written in Japanese. The Japanese version of the PEMAT-P was used to assess understandability and actionability, while jReadability was used for readability. A systematic comparison was conducted to identify the strengths and weaknesses of each source. Results: Texts generated by Gemini at the 6th-grade level ( Innovation: This study is the first to objectively and quantitatively evaluate the understandability and actionability of educational materials on anemia prevention. By utilizing PEMAT-P and jReadability, the study demonstrated the superiority of Gemini in terms of understandability and readability through measurable data. This innovative approach highlights the potential of AI chatbots as a novel method for providing public health information and addressing health disparities. Conclusion: AI-generated texts on anemia were found to be more readable and easier to understand than traditional web-based texts, with Gemini demonstrating the highest level of understandability. Moving forward, improvements in prompts will be necessary to enhance the integration of visual elements that encourage actionable responses in AI chatbots.
