Exploration of the Role of ChatGPT in Teaching Communication Skills for Medical Students: A Pilot Study.
Article in Medical science educator, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Effective patient-centered communication, particularly the skills of breaking bad news (BBN), is crucial for successful doctor-patient relationships and requires specialized training. This study evaluates the impact of Chatbot Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (ChatGPT) on BBN training for medical students. We found significant increase in medical students' confidence in their BBN ability (3 vs. 4.17,
