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

Background: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is strongly influenced by persistent misconceptions that delay help-seeking and limit engagement with effective care. Patient-centered digital strategies, including generative artificial intelligence (AI) microlearning, may improve sexual-health knowledge; however, real-world evidence in urological practice remains sparse. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate whether a clinician-supervised generative AI microlearning video improves ED-related knowledge in adult men attending routine outpatient care. Methods: This single-center pre-post quasi-experimental study included 200 adult men in a university urology clinic. Participants completed an 8-item ED myth questionnaire immediately before and after watching a 3-minute educational video. The narration script was drafted using a large language model (ChatGPT) and iteratively reviewed by urologists for accuracy and cultural appropriateness. The primary outcome was the within-participant change in total correct responses (0-8). Subgroup analyses assessed effects across age (<40 years vs ≥40 years), education level, and self-reported ED. Paired analyses and multivariable logistic regression were used (α=.05). Results: All participants completed the intervention (mean age 44.0, SD 11.6 years). Total mean correct responses increased from 3.77 to 6.56 (mean difference 2.79; P<.001), indicating a large effect (Cohen d=1.52). Knowledge gains were consistent across subgroups, with greater improvements among those with lower education. Self-reported ED was independently associated with lower odds of achieving ≥2-point improvement (odds ratio 0.46, 95% CI 0.26-0.81; P=.01). No adverse events or technical difficulties occurred. Conclusions: A brief clinician-supervised generative AI microlearning video was associated with substantial short-term improvements in ED myth-related knowledge in routine outpatient care. AI-assisted microlearning may represent a scalable adjunct to patient education during urological consultations. Future studies should evaluate long-term retention and behavioral outcomes.
