Detaljert beskrivelse

Rare diseases collectively affect approximately 300 million individuals worldwide. This prolonged diagnostic delay is attributable in large part to the breadth of over 7,000 recognized rare conditions, which far exceeds the clinical exposure of any individual physician. A rare disease-specific diagnostic AI was developed by Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH), supporting differential diagnosis generation, clinical workup planning, and genomic variant interpretation. A balanced crossover design ensures that each enrolled physician serves as their own control, substantially reducing confounding from inter-reader variability in baseline diagnostic competency. Within each physician, cases are randomly assigned at the case level to either the AI-assisted or unassisted condition, such that each physician reads a subset of cases with AI assistance and the remaining cases without. This within-reader, case-level randomization eliminates the need for a washout period and directly controls for inter-reader differences in baseline diagnostic competency. All cases are collected from real-world clinical settings with independently confirmed gold-standard diagnoses and span a pre-specified spectrum of rare and non-rare disease categories, reflecting the differential diagnostic challenge encountered in routine clinical practice, to ensure diagnostic breadth and clinical representativeness. Physician seniority (junior vs. senior) is incorporated as a pre-specified stratification and subgroup analysis variable. Diagnostic outputs are evaluated by an independent Expert Adjudication Committee, blinded to the assistance condition, using standardized scoring criteria established prior to data collection.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: Intervention Arm
Physicians complete assigned diagnostic tasks with the assistance of AI system in addition to conventional clinical resources.
A rare disease-specific diagnostic AI model is used to accept free text input and assist in rare disease diagnoses. During the experimental condition, physicians may interact with the system freely alongside standard clinical resources to support their diagnostic reasoning.
Ingen inngripen: Control Arm
Physicians complete the assigned diagnostic tasks using conventional clinical resources only (e.g., medical databases and literature), without access to any generative AI tools. This arm reflects routine clinical diagnostic practice.
