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

Large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT have gained attention for their potential to assist clinical decision-making in oncology. However, real-world validation of these models against multidisciplinary tumor board (MTB) recommendations-particularly in breast cancer treatment-remains limited. This retrospective study assessed the concordance between GPT-4o and the decisions of a breast cancer MTB over a six-month period. Thirty-three patients were included. Structured clinical data were entered into GPT-4o using standardized prompts, and treatment plans were generated in two independent sessions per case. Seven therapeutic domains were evaluated: surgery, radiotherapy, hormonal therapy, neoadjuvant therapy, adjuvant therapy, genetic counseling/testing, and dual HER2-targeted therapy. Two blinded reviewers scored concordance using a 5-point Likert scale. Inter-rater reliability and classification metrics were calculated. GPT-4o generated consistent recommendations across both sessions for all patients. Full concordance (5/5) with MTB decisions was observed in 31 of 33 cases (93.9%), while partial concordance (4/5) occurred in 2 cases (6.1%) due to differences regarding genetic counseling. Inter-rater agreement was perfect (Cohen's kappa = 1.00), and the mean concordance score was 4.94 out of 5. The model achieved an overall accuracy of 93.9%, precision of 93.9%, recall of 100%, and F1 score of 96.8%. GPT-4o demonstrated a high level of agreement with expert multidisciplinary decisions in breast cancer care when provided with structured clinical input. These findings support its potential as a reproducible, guideline-consistent decision-support tool in oncology workflows.
