Voice Recognition for Periodontal Probing Medical Records under Korean-English Bilingual Conditions: A Feasibility Study.
Article in Healthcare informatics research, 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
objectivesThis study evaluated the feasibility of voice recognition-based electronic medical record (EMR) documentation for periodontal probing in dentistry, particularly emphasizing Korean-English bilingual speech patterns and real-world clinical conditions.
methodsExperiments were conducted in a dental chair setting during routine clinical hours. Environmental noise levels were measured, and two microphone types (stationary and pin-type) were evaluated. Periodontal probing phrases composed of three-digit numbers and positional terms were used for speech recognition. Consistent with common clinical practice in Korea, numerical values were spoken in Korean, whereas positional terms were spoken in English. Two speech-to-text application programming interfaces, Google Cloud Speech-to-Text and Naver Clova Speech Recognition, were assessed. Recognition accuracy was evaluated for both numerical components and complete bilingual phrases.
resultsThe mean environmental noise level was 60.65 dB and was minimally influenced by activity at adjacent dental chairs. The stationary microphone failed to capture speech effectively, whereas the pin-type microphone demonstrated stable recognition performance. For three-digit number recognition, accuracy was 88.3% with Google and 96.8% with Naver. For full-phrase recognition, complete matching was achieved in 36.7% of cases for Google and 52.5% for Naver. Partial recognition occurred more frequently for numerical components than for English positional terms.
conclusionsVoice recognition-based EMR documentation for periodontal probing demonstrated preliminary feasibility in a dental clinical environment; however, performance was influenced by Korean-English bilingual speech patterns. These findings suggest that bilingual speech characteristics should be considered when implementing voice recognition systems in dental EMR workflows. Further optimization is required before routine clinical application.
