GPT for RCTs? Using AI to determine adherence to clinical trial reporting guidelines.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Adherence to established reporting guidelines can improve clinical trial reporting standards, but attempts to improve adherence have produced mixed results. This exploratory study aimed to determine how accurate a large language model generative artificial intelligence system (AI-LLM) was for determining reporting guideline compliance in a sample of sports medicine clinical trial reports.

Design

This study was an exploratory retrospective data analysis. OpenAI GPT-4 and Meta Llama 2 AI-LLM were evaluated for their ability to determine reporting guideline adherence in a sample of sports medicine and exercise science clinical trial reports.

Setting

Academic research institution.

Participants

The study sample included 113 published sports medicine and e
