This study assessed ChatGPT's ability to formulate editorial decisions and produce peer reviews for surgery-related manuscripts. We tested the hypothesis that ChatGPT's peer review quality exceeds that of human reviewers. Eleven published articles in the field of hand surgery, initially rejected by one journal and after accepted by another, were anonymized by removing the title page from the original PDF submission and subsequently evaluated by requesting ChatGPT 4o and o1 to determine each article's eligibility for publication and generate a peer review. The policy prohibiting the submission of unpublished manuscripts to large language models was not violated, as all articles had already been published at the time of the study. An experienced hand surgeon assessed all peer reviews (including the original human reviews from both the rejecting and the accepting journals and ChatGPT-generated) using the ARCADIA score, which consists of 20 items rated from 1 to 5 on a Likert scale. The average acceptance rate of ChatGPT 4o was 95%, while that of ChatGPT o1 was 98%. The concordance of ChatGPT 4o's decisions with those of the journal with the highest impact factor was 32%, whereas that of ChatGPT o1 was 29%. ChatGPT 4o's decisions were in accordance with those of the journal with the lowest impact factor, which was 68%, while ChatGPT o1's was 71%. The ARCADIA scores of peer reviews generated by human reviewers (2.8 for journals that accepted the article and 3.2 for those that rejected it) were lower than those of ChatGPT 4o (4.8) and o1 (4.9). In conclusion, ChatGPT can optimize the peer review process for scientific articles if it receives precise instructions to avoid \"hallucinations.\" Many of its functionalities surpass human capabilities, but managing its limitations rigorously is essential to improving publication quality.</p>","PeriodicalId":94023,"journal":{"name":"Hand surgery & rehabilitation","volume":" ","pages":"102225"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144683858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An anatomical study.","authors":"Jean-Noël Goubier, Tanguy Perraudin, Camille Echalier","doi":"10.1016/j.hansur.2025.102211","DOIUrl":"10.1016/j.hansur.2025.102211","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Transferring the long head of the triceps nerve to the axillary nerve is a widely used technique for restoring abduction and elevation of the shoulder in adults with partial brachial plexus lesions. This procedure can be performed using either an anterior (axillary) or a posterior approach. This anatomical study aimed to compare the distance between the microsurgical suture of the nerve transfer and the axillary nerve's entry into the middle and anterior deltoid, to determine which approach provides the shortest nerve regrowth path. The anatomical study was carried out on 12 subjects (i.e. 24 shoulders). For each subject, the transfer of the long portion of the triceps nerve to the anterior division of the axillary nerve was simulated. The microsurgical suture area was marked on the axillary nerve using stitches or clips. The nerve was then dissected and released until it entered the middle and anterior bundles of the deltoid via a lateral trans-deltoid route. The nerve was then cut flush with the muscle and recovered via the axillary route on ten shoulders (five right, five left) and via the posterior route on ten shoulders (five right, five left). The distance between the marker and the end of the axillary nerve was measured. The time taken to locate the teres minor branch after locating the axillary nerve through the anterior and posterior approaches was also noted. On average, the distance between the suture and the nerve's entry into the deltoid was 74 mm for the anterior approach (ranging from 65 to 80 mm), and 62.4 mm for the posterior approach (ranging from 38 to 69 mm). There was a significant difference in length between the two approaches. The teres minor branch was located more quickly with the anterior approach (average time: 4 min, range 2-6 min) than with the posterior approach (average time: 18.1 min, range 16-21 min). This difference was significant (p < 0.05). In a nerve transfer, the distance between the suture and the recipient muscle affects the time taken for reinnervation and therefore the outcome, given the progressive degradation of the motor end plates from the initial lesion. This study shows that the distance is significantly shorter via the posterior route. Reinnervation of the deltoid muscle should therefore be faster and of better quality via this route. These results must be confirmed by a clinical study.</p>","PeriodicalId":94023,"journal":{"name":"Hand surgery & rehabilitation","volume":" ","pages":"102211"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144531960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
