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

objectiveA significant gap exists in medical support for organ transplant patients during out-of-hours (OOH). General large language models (LLMs), affected by AI hallucinations, are unsuitable for complex post-transplant care. We built the first post-transplant AI agent based on LLMs to address these issues.

methodsWe constructed a specialized "post-transplant AI agent" (named Doctor Xiao Yi) and conducted a mixed-methods study comparing it to a hospital-wide general AI agent (named Nan Xiao Yi). Data included 20,176 real-world logs (June-December 2025) and a cross-sectional survey of 152 transplant patients. We examined patterns of use over time, the types of questions raised, and the factors influencing patient behavior.

resultsUnlike Nan Xiao Yi, Doctor Xiao Yi remained active during OOH, with a peak at 4:00 AM (P < 0.001). The general agent handled admin tasks like appointments, while the specialist agent provided clinical support such as diet, symptoms, and medication. Survey found 60.5% of OOH use by transplant patients due to reluctance to disturb human doctors. Furthermore, 63.8% of transplant patients were satisfied with the specialist agent's responses, and 48% reported they would decide on further hospital treatment based on AI suggestions.

conclusionsThe specialist AI agent effectively fills the gap in medical and psychological services during OOH for transplant recipients. Based on the "dual-source knowledge base + GraphRAG + multi-agent framework" architecture, our specialist AI agent offers safe, reliable post-transplant care.
