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 rise of digital speech-based assistants (e.g., Amazon's Alexa, Apple's Siri, or Hellofresh's chatbot) gained increased popularity and has also found its way into healthcare. A current example is WHO's WhatsApp chatbot that informs users about COVID-19. Such assistants can educate patients, independent of location and time, which is an incredible benefit for patients. However, in addition to existing technical challenges (including the development and optimization of speech recognition algorithms), there are also challenges in human-chatbot-interactions. This study investigates the role of a human-like design (including human name, greeting, and human avatar) of a travel vaccination advice chatbot on the perception of its users. Specifically, we aim to understand whether and how anthropomorphism (the perception of humanness and social presence in objects, animals, and machines) affects perceived trustworthiness and ultimately service satisfaction. In an online experiment with 78 participants, two chatbot designs (with human-like design elements vs. without these elements) were compared. The results show that perceived social presence significantly increases perceived trustworthiness and service satisfaction. Thus, we recommend that practitioners implement a human-like design travel vaccination counseling and similar counseling processes via chatbots.
