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: Artificial intelligence (AI) has recently advanced in medicine globally, transforming healthcare delivery and medical education. While AI integration into medical curricula is gaining momentum worldwide, research on medical students' preparedness remains limited, particularly in developing countries. This paper aims to investigate the readiness of medical students at the Kerman University of Medical Sciences to employ AI in medicine in 2022. Methods: This cross-sectional research was carried out by distributing the validated 20-item Medical Artificial Intelligence Readiness Scale for Medical Students (MAIRS-MS) among 360 medical students, with a response rate of 94% ( Results: Participants demonstrated below-average readiness scores across all domains: ability ( Conclusion: Iranian medical students currently show limited readiness for AI integration in healthcare practice. Therefore, the study recommends: (1) implementing structured introductory AI courses in medical curricula, focusing particularly on technical fundamentals and practical applications, and (2) developing hands-on training programs that combine AI concepts with clinical scenarios. These findings provide valuable insights for curriculum development and educational policy in medical education.
