The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Improving the Public Health Care Delivery System in India: A Legal-Ethical Audit.
Review in Indian journal of community medicine : official publication of Indian Association of Preventive & Social Medicine. 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
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized healthcare by addressing infrastructural inadequacies, doctor shortages, and inaccessibility. Other than enhancing diagnostics, data analysis, trend analysis, and precision medicine, AI has been instrumental in various hospital settings, from patient triage to cancer detection. However, this valuable asset has far-fetching legal and ethical implications, necessitating a robust legal framework for regulating AI-powered healthcare. This paper suggests an audit mechanism and examines the future trajectory of AI-augmented healthcare in India. The existing literature (2018-2025) on the intersection of AI and healthcare, available on PubMed, SCOPUS, and legal databases, was reviewed from the perspective of legal and ethical issues. Patient outcomes can potentially be improved with AI complementing doctor's expertise. However, given the inexplicability of AI systems and "Black Box" problem, doctors, ethicists, programmers, and other stakeholders in AI development are often at a crossroads. A review of the existing literature reveals their common concerns: (i) understanding "intelligence" and "computation"; (ii) the question of informed consent in data collection, use, and processing; (iii) the changing dynamics and challenges to the doctor-patient relationship with increasing AI integration; (iv) accountability for errors in AI-generated outputs. The potential benefits of AI must be balanced against legal and ethical issues to guard against the harmful effects of uncritical use. We suggest that a legal framework developed in this context should be informed to facilitate access and equity through AI-powered healthcare. Considering the "superhuman" and "subhuman" traits of AI, regulation should encourage the development of AI systems that
