Abstract

The field of prevention science seeks to identify and implement effective strategies to address social, emotional, and health challenges. A critical aspect of this endeavor is determining the core components of prevention programs that drive positive outcomes. This article presents a case study utilizing artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted systematic review methods to identify key components of healthy marriage and relationship education programs. Given the growing body of research in this domain, AI tools offer a promising means to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of literature reviews. This study employed AI to screen, code, and validate research articles, demonstrating its effectiveness in expediting systematic reviews while maintaining high accuracy in inclusion screening. This case study involved a systematic review of 22,028 resources (identified from PsycINFO, Academic Search Ultimate, and Google) and a final data set of 268 relevant studies. AI screening was integral in effectively conducting multiple rounds of screening. However, findings also highlight challenges in AI-assisted qualitative data abstraction, underscoring the continued need for human expertise in complex coding tasks. The study contributes to the ongoing discourse on integrating AI into prevention science methodologies and offers insights for optimizing AI applications in systematic reviews.

Enhanced fracture detection on radiographs with AI assistance for clinicians: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Emergency radiographic interpretation for fractures is prone to missed or misdiagnoses. Artificial intelligence (AI) is expected to become a powerful tool to assist clinicians in fracture detection. PURPOSE: A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed to assess whether AI improves clinicians' ability to detect fractures on radiographs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library for studies published between January 1, 2010, and October 10, 2025. A meta-analysis of diagnostic accuracy studies was performed using a Summary Receiver Operating Characteristic (SROC) curve. The quality of included studies was assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2 (QUADAS-2) tool. Subgroup analysis and meta-regression were conducted to explore potential sources of heterogeneity. RESULTS: A total of 26 studies were included . The pooled sensitivity of clinicians increased from 77% (95% CI: 72-81) to 87% (95% CI: 83-90) with AI assistance, while the pooled specificity improved from 88% (95% CI: 85-90) to 92% (95% CI: 89-94). The corresponding AUC values were 0.90 (95% CI: 0.87-0.92) before and 0.95 (95% CI: 0.93-0.97) after AI assistance. Eight studies were rated as high risk of bias. Subgroup analysis and meta-regression identified potential sources of heterogeneity, including fracture location, AI model type, high risk of bias, and reference standards. CONCLUSION: AI assistance significantly improves clinicians' diagnostic performance in detecting fractures on radiographs for extremity and trunk fractures.

Artificial Intelligence in Diagnosing Depression Through Behavioural Cues: A Diagnostic Accuracy Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

AIM: To synthesise existing evidence concerning the application of AI methods in detecting depression through behavioural cues among adults in healthcare and community settings. DESIGN: This is a diagnostic accuracy systematic review. METHODS: This review included studies examining different AI methods in detecting depression among adults. Two independent reviewers screened, appraised and extracted data. Data were analysed by meta-analysis, narrative synthesis and subgroup analysis. DATA SOURCES: Published studies and grey literature were sought in 11 electronic databases. Hand search was conducted on reference lists and two journals. RESULTS: In total, 30 studies were included in this review. Twenty of which demonstrated that AI models had the potential to detect depression. Speech and facial expression showed better sensitivity, reflecting the ability to detect people with depression. Text and movement had better specificity, indicating the ability to rule out non-depressed individuals. Heterogeneity was initially high. Less heterogeneity was observed within each modality subgroup. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first systematic review examining AI models in detecting depression using all four behavioural cues: speech, texts, movement and facial expressions. IMPLICATIONS: A collaborative effort among healthcare professionals can be initiated to develop an AI-assisted depression detection system in general healthcare or community settings. IMPACT: It is challenging for general healthcare professionals to detect depressive symptoms among people in non-psychiatric settings. Our findings suggested the need for objective screening tools, such as an AI-assisted system, for screening depression. Therefore, people could receive accurate diagnosis and proper treatments for depression. REPORTING METHOD: This review followed the PRISMA checklist. PATIENTS OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No patients or public contribution.

Effectiveness and usability of artificial intelligence-powered assistive technologies in Supporting daily activities of children with cerebral palsy: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the main cause of motor disabilities in childhood, necessitating innovative approaches to rehabilitation and assistive technology (AT). Simultaneously, artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being integrated into devices to create more adaptive, personalized, and effective AT. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and usability of AI-powered assistive technologies designed to support daily activities and rehabilitation in children with CP. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five databases, including Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, and IEEE Xplore, were systematically searched, and 23 articles were included in the final analysis. Articles were identified, selected, and categorized into emerging thematic areas based on the primary function and application of the technology. RESULTS: Five key thematic topics were identified: 1) AI-driven motor rehabilitation and gait training for functional mobility; 2) intelligent assessment and monitoring systems for clinical decision support; 3) AI-supported communication, social interaction, and intention recognition tools; 4) gamified and virtual reality-based interventions to enhance engagement and usability; and 5) smart assistive systems supporting daily living and independent mobility. The findings demonstrate a strong trend toward the application of AI technologies in personalized, engaging, and data-driven interventions for children with CP. However, the field is predominantly in the proof-of-concept stage, with limitations including small sample sizes, lack of long-term clinical validation, challenges in user-centered design, and usability for children with CP. CONCLUSION: AI-powered assistive technologies hold significant potential for transforming the care of children with CP by enabling highly personalized and engaging interventions. To actualize this potential, future work must realize that practical application remains challenging owing to limited clinical validation, technological integration, and usability barriers for children with CP. Future research must prioritize user-centered design and multidisciplinary collaboration to ensure that AI and robotic advancements improve the usability and quality of life for children with CP.
