Preparing for an AI-driven future: insights from Saudi pharmacy students.
Article in PeerJ, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Aim: The current study was conducted to assess pharmacy students outlook towards artificial intelligence (AI), pharmacy education, and pharmacy practice. Methods: The study used a cross-sectional, self-administered, anonymous online questionnaire. The study was conducted at the college of pharmacy in Saudi Arabia. Participants: Year 4 and year 5 undergraduate pharmacy students were chosen as the study population. Results: A total of 133 pharmacy students completed the survey (response rate: 82%). The mean Likert score for perceptions of AI use in pharmacy education and practice was 3.43 ± 0.6, while the mean score for incorporation of AI in pharmacy education programs was 3.55 ± 0.78. Students demonstrated generally positive attitudes toward AI, supporting its development and integration into pharmacy curricula, though ethical awareness remained moderate. Discussion and Conclusion: Most students were supportive of the development of AI in the pharmacy field and valued the importance of having some basic understanding of AI. Ethical and legal consideration of AI used was raised by participants. They were supportive of integrating AI into pharmacy program curricula. Their top-rated learning objectives involved understanding and interpreting AI generated results, gaining awareness of ethical consideration of using AI in clinical practice, comprehend how basic technology process the work, expressing how technology functions in a way that others can grasp.
