The effectiveness of GAI-assisted teaching methods in medical education: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in public health, 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
Objective: The study evaluated the effectiveness of generative artificial intelligence (GAI)-assisted teaching methods on the medical educational outcomes. Methods: Following the PRISMA guidelines, a systematic search was conducted for literature on AI-assisted educational interventions in medical education (e.g. clinical, nursing and dentistry medicine). PROSPERO registration number was CRD420251173150. Meta-analyses of the outcomes were performed using the Review Manager 5.4. Heterogeneity was evaluated using the Results: A total of 5,764 publications was initially retrieved, of which 78 studies involving 3,635 medical students in the GAI-assisted teaching group and 3,931 medical students in the control group were included. The pooled results revealed that GAI-assisted teaching significantly improved academic performance in terms of both knowledge (SMD = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.72-1.18, Conclusions: The results showed that the GAI-assisted teaching could improve efficiently various aspects of education outcomes for medical students, including academic performance, self-efficacy and initiative in learning, and skills development. In future, policymakers should consider integrating artificial intelligence into teacher training and medical curriculum design to improve learning outcomes.
