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

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly influencing healthcare, with growing relevance in infectious diseases and clinical microbiology. This review summarizes current applications of machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and large language models (LLMs) in these areas while critically evaluating their strengths and limitations. Although AI has shown promising performance in image analysis, molecular diagnostics, risk prediction, and clinical decision support, its routine implementation remains constrained by limited external validation, heterogeneous datasets, algorithmic bias, and challenges in generalizability and explainability. The review also discusses AI's emerging role in scientific writing and the ethical and practical considerations associated with its clinical adoption. Overall, current evidence suggests that AI should be regarded as a complementary decision-support technology whose safe and effective integration depends on rigorous validation, high-quality data, and appropriate clinical oversight.
