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

Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of five common Chinese generative artificial intelligence (GAI) models on a medical molecular biology examination and assess the application value of these GAIs in teaching. Methods A set of medical molecular biology test questions was used to measure the performance of five Chinese GAIs, including ERNIE Bot, chatGLM, iFLYTEK Spark, Qwen, and Doubao. The correct response rates of the five GAIs were compared with those of actual medical undergraduates using an unpaired t-test in GraphPad Prism 6.01. Results The total scores of the five GAIs all exceeded the passing score of 60 (full score: 100), ranging from 75.67 to 88.67. ERNIE Bot, chatGLM, Qwen, and Doubao demonstrated higher correct rates for total scores (80.33%-88.67%; p-value: 0.0127-0.0492) and for multiple-choice questions (83.33%-87.50%; p-value: 0.0071-0.0137) compared to actual undergraduates, showing a different distribution pattern of incorrect responses. Conclusion This study demonstrated the effectiveness of the five GAIs as learning aids in medical molecular biology. However, due to occasional incorrect answers, undergraduates should apply critical thinking when using GAI-generated responses. Meanwhile, a discipline-specific AI agent for medical molecular biology should be developed as soon as possible.
