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 AND

objectivesAlthough artificial intelligence models have existed for decades, the demand for application of these tools within health care and especially medical education are exponentially expanding. Pressure is mounting to increase direct observation and faculty feedback for resident learners, which can create administrative burdens for a Clinical Competency Committee (CCC). This study aimed to assess the feasibility of utilizing a large language model (ChatGPT) in family medicine residency evaluation by comparing the agreement between ChatGPT and the CCC for the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) family medicine milestone levels and examining potential biases in milestone assignment.

methodsWritten faculty feedback for 24 residents from July 2022 to December 2022 at our institution was collated and de-identified. Using standardized prompts for each query, we used ChatGPT to assign milestone levels based on faculty feedback for 11 ACGME subcompetencies. We analyzed these levels for correlation and agreement between actual levels assigned by the CCC.

resultsUsing Pearson's correlation coefficient, we found an overall positive and strong correlation between ChatGPT and the CCC for competencies of patient care, medical knowledge, communication, and professionalism. We found no significant difference in correlation or mean difference in milestone level between male and female residents. No significant difference existed between residents with a high faculty feedback word count versus a low word count.

conclusionsThis study demonstrates the feasibility for tools like ChatGPT to assist in the evaluation process of family medicine residents without apparent bias based on gender or word count.
