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
Background: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into clinical practice is gaining momentum globally, yet specialty-specific perspectives remain underexplored. This study aimed to assess the awareness, knowledge, attitudes, expectations, and concerns of infectious diseases and clinical microbiology (IDCM) physicians regarding AI applications in their field. Methods: A cross-sectional, online survey was distributed between May and June 2025 to IDCM physicians across Türkiye. The questionnaire included multiple-choice, Likert-type, and open-ended items assessing sociodemographic characteristics, AI familiarity, clinical use, and perceptions. Descriptive and inferential statistics, along with thematic analysis of qualitative responses, were employed. Results: In total, 387 IDCM physicians completed the survey. While 0.5% ( Conclusions: This study provides comprehensive insights into IDCM physicians' perspectives on AI. Findings highlight strong interest but limited preparedness, underscoring the need for targeted education, ethical safeguards, and inclusive policy frameworks to ensure responsible AI integration.
