How does artificial intelligence improve ophthalmology education outcomes?-The mediating role of learning motivation and self-efficacy.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being applied in medical education, yet evidence on how it translates into achievement it is most effective remains limited in ophthalmology. Methods: This cross-sectional study examined undergraduate ophthalmology students at a university in Jilin Province, China. A total of 416 students were randomly selected at two time points-November 2024 and March 2025-corresponding to the autumn 2024 and spring 2025 course cohorts, respectively. Survey measures captured AI usage, learning motivation, self-efficacy, final examination scores, and AI literacy. A moderated parallel mediation model was tested using structural equation modeling. Results: AI usage was positively associated with academic performance ( Conclusion: AI usage is associated with higher ophthalmology academic performance partly through increased learning motivation and self-efficacy, and AI literacy strengthened the AI usage in the learning motivation path. Given the cross-sectional design, longitudinal validation is warranted.
