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

Artificial intelligence (AI) will likely transform many aspects of healthcare, and physicians will need to adapt and lead. The expanding range of AI tools calls for physicians to become competent in their proper use if we are to achieve better patient experience, population health and health equity, and with greater efficiency, while enhancing physician satisfaction. This viewpoint proposes a practical and manageable set of core competencies for physicians in using AI tools effectively and ethically and suggests methods for acquiring these competencies.
