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

objectiveRapid advances in artificial intelligence have increased interest in using large language models (LLMs) for medical education and clinical applications. This exploratory study evaluated the ability of three multimodal LLMs, ChatGPT 5, Gemini 2.5 Flash, and Grok 4, to identify anatomical structures in cross-sectional images of the upper and lower limbs.

resultsTwenty cross-sectional images, each highlighting a single anatomical structure, were presented to the models with standardized prompts specifying the anatomical region. Accuracy was scored for each model. ChatGPT 5 correctly identified 9 of 20 structures (45%, 95% CI: 23.1–68.5%), Gemini 2.5 Flash 5 of 20 (25%, 95% CI: 8.7–49.1%), and Grok 4 4 of 20 (20%, 95% CI: 5.7–43.7%). A qualitative error analysis revealed common misclassification patterns. These results indicate modest accuracy under the tested conditions and highlight areas for model improvement.
