An artificial intelligence application framework for nursing education: a scoping review based on the KAS model.
Article in BMC medical education, 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
backgroundArtificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping education, but existing AI application frameworks cannot be effectively applied to nursing education, which is defined by its focus on practical skills and clinical judgment.
aimsThis study aims to address this gap by synthesizing literature on current educational AI application frameworks to propose a dedicated AI application framework for nursing education, grounded in the core nursing competency model of Knowledge, Attitude, and Skills (KAS) to guide curriculum design.
methodsA systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and CNKI to identify literature on educational AI application frameworks. The search strategy combined controlled vocabulary and free-text keywords, adapted to the indexing structure of each database. Reference lists of eligible studies and relevant articles were manually screened to supplement the electronic search. The search was updated to March 2026.
resultsThe study systematically screened the initial 1750 retrieved documents, ultimately including 23 studies for analysis. The included publications spanned the years 2022 to 2026 and covered 15 countries worldwide. Through in-depth analysis of these documents, the study identified and synthesized an AI application framework for nursing education comprising three major dimensions: knowledge, attitudes, and skills. This framework encompasses 12 key sub-dimensions, providing detailed guidance for curriculum design in nursing education, and is proposed for an AI application framework tailored to nursing education.
conclusionThe potential of AI in nursing education is transformative. To fully unlock this potential and ensure responsible application, existing research should focus on empirically validating the proposed framework through empirical studies, exploring adaptive implementation strategies for resource-constrained settings, and developing educators’ AI application capabilities.
