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

backgroundArtificial intelligence (AI) is transforming inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) care, but concerns over data quality, privacy, and provider familiarity remain.

aimsTo examine international health care providers' (HCPs) perceptions, clinical use of, and barriers to applying AI in IBD care.

methodsAn anonymous 17-item survey was developed and pretested by an international team. The survey was fielded internationally from January to May 2025 via social media, international IBD newsletters and email listservs.

resultsOf 323 IBD professionals from North America (35.3%), Europe (26.0%), Asia-Pacific (19.2%), 207 (64.1%) viewed AI as very or extremely promising. AI-assisted endoscopy was reportedly adopted by 131 (40.6%) of respondents, but only 69 (21.4%) reported applying AI in IBD care or research. Males supported AI in IBD endoscopic scoring (89.9% vs. 79.1%, p = 0.009) and radiomics more than females (86.6% vs. 75.2%, p = 0.022), while females endorsed AI for patient education more than males (81.5% vs. 70.6%, p = 0.026). 145 (44.9%) respondents were concerned about AI usage in IBD care. Females were less concerned about cost (18.5% vs. 30.1%, p = 0.019) and more concerned about oversight (28.7% vs. 14.7%, p = 0.003). Concerns regarding AI usage decreased with age (OR 0.021 for age > 55 compared to age 25-34 years old; 95% CI 0.13-0.84). Exposure to IBD-focused AI-based tools was associated with more favorable perceptions of AI use in IBD care (OR 2.63, 95% CI 1.25-5.53).

conclusionBased upon survey results, HCPs had concerns over insufficient education, regulatory ambiguity, and perplexing implementation strategies for AI. Proven clinical benefit (74.9%) and adequate AI training (72.1%) are the top solutions for enabling the appropriate adoption of AI tools in IBD.
