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

backgroundMultidisciplinary Tumor Councils (MDTs) are vital platforms that provide tailored treatment plans for cancer patients by combining expertise from various medical disciplines. Recently, Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools have been investigated as decision-support systems within these councils.

methodsIn this prospective study, the compatibility of AI (ChatGPT-4.0) with MDT decisions was evaluated in 100 cancer patients presented to the tumor council between November 2024 and January 2025. AI-generated treatment recommendations based on anonymized, detailed clinical summaries were compared with real-time MDT decisions. Cohen's Kappa and Spearman correlation tests were used for statistical analysis.

resultsNeoadjuvant treatment (45%) and surgery (36%) were the most frequent MDT decisions. AI recommended surgery (39%) and neoadjuvant treatment (37%) most frequently. A high concordance rate of 76.4% was observed between AI and MDT decisions (κ = 0.764 [95% CI; 0.658-0.870]

conclusionAI demonstrates substantial agreement with MDT decisions, particularly in cases adhering to standardized oncological guidelines. However, for AI integration into clinical workflows, it must evolve to interpret real-time patient data and function transparently within ethical and legal frameworks.
