Utility of ChatGPT in generating accurate client handouts for common veterinary internal medicine diseases.
Article in Journal of veterinary internal medicine, 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
backgroundChat Generative Pre-trained Transformer's (ChatGPT) ability to generate client educational materials for use in practice is unknown. HYPOTHESIS/
objectivesTo assess the educational quality of ChatGPT-generated client handouts for common internal medicine diseases. We hypothesized that ChatGPT can be used to efficiently generate easy-to-understand, accurate handouts for client education. ANIMALS: Small Animal Internal Medicine (SAIM) diplomates and pet owners were administered 2 separate electronic surveys.
methodsClient handouts on diabetes mellitus (DM) and immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) in dogs and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in cats were generated by using a standardized prompt in ChatGPT-3.5. Electronic surveys were distributed to both pet owners and American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM)-SAIM diplomates.
resultsPet owners (n = 50) reported a greater understanding of each disease process after reading the handouts for DM (Z = 5.865, P < .001), IMHA (Z = 5.953, P < .001), and IBD (Z = 5.508, P < .001). Median pet owner satisfaction scores (reported on a scale of 0 to 5, with 0 indicating poor satisfaction and 5 indicating maximal satisfaction) were 4 for DM, 4 for IMHA, and 5 for IBD. Many diplomates reported that they would use the handout on DM (n = 48/67; 71%), IBD (n = 47/62; 76%), and IMHA (n = 32/64; 50%) with either "minor" or "minimal to no" revisions. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Although some refinement is warranted, ChatGPT-3.5 was able to successfully generate client educational handouts for common internal medicine diseases.
