1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundBasic medical pathology teaching suffers from fragmented knowledge and insufficient personalized learning, which impairs students' systematic knowledge construction and learning efficiency. This study aimed to apply an AI and knowledge graph integrated teaching model to address these challenges and provide references for basic medical education reform.

methodsAn 18-week randomized controlled trial was conducted on 360 nursing students (180 each in experimental/control groups). The control group used traditional teaching, while the experimental group adopted the "AI + knowledge graph" integrated model with AI-assisted learning and knowledge graph reviews. SPSS was used for quantitative and qualitative data analysis.

resultsThe experimental group showed significantly better outcomes: final score (84.2 ± 6.9 vs. 74.1 ± 7.6), after adjusting for class-level clustering using a two-level mixed-effects model, adjusted mean difference = 8.2, 95% CI: 4.7-11.7, P = 0.012, Cohen's d = 1.13 (95% CI not computed), indicating a large effect size. knowledge mastery rate (90.3% vs.75.8%), clinical case analysis score (28.5±3.2 vs. 21.3±4.1, P<0.001). It also reduced ineffective learning time.

conclusionThis integrated model effectively promotes structured knowledge construction and learning efficiency, realizing the synergistic effect of AI and knowledge graph. It provides a replicable and practical reference for the digital and intelligent reform of basic medical education courses.
