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

Materials and methods: The dataset for this study consists of 128 multiple-choice prosthodontics questions from the DUS, a national exam administered in Turkey by the Student Selection and Placement Center (ÖSYM) between 2012 and 2021. Chatbot performance was assessed by categorizing the questions into case-based and knowledge-based. Results: ChatGPT-4 achieved the highest accuracy (75.8 %), while Gemini AI had the lowest (46.1 %). Gemini AI also had more incorrect (69) than correct answers (59). ChatGPT-4 and ChatGPT-3.5 showed significantly higher accuracy in knowledge-based questions compared to case-based ones (p < 0.05). For case-based questions, Gemini and Gemini Advanced had the lowest accuracy (36.4 %), while other chatbots averaged 45.5 %. In knowledge-based questions, ChatGPT-4 performed best (78.6 %) and Gemini AI the worst (47 %). Conclusion: ChatGPT-4 excelled in knowledge-based prosthodontic questions, showing potential to enhance dental education through personalized learning and clinical reasoning support. However, its limitations in case-based scenarios highlight the need for optimization to better address complex clinical situations. These findings suggest that AI models can significantly contribute to dental education and clinical practice.
