Background: Large language models (LLMs) can extract information from unstructured clinical text, but it remains unclear whether their ability to assess current status translates into reliable predictions of longitudinal outcomes. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate DeepSeek's ability to assess baseline clinical and radiographic status in knee osteoarthritis (KOA), its performance in predicting 6-month outcomes, and its interrun reproducibility. Methods: This study used a single-center, prospective observati…

The problem

In a prospective study of 111 knee osteoarthritis patients, DeepSeek's 6-month WOMAC score predictions erred by 5.92 to 6.58 points on average, versus 3.86 for a rheumatologist and 5.43 for a simple no-change model.

What this doesn’t fix

The study was single-center, with 111 patients analysed, and evaluated only one DeepSeek configuration, so results may not carry over to other settings or models.

How to check it yourself, without trusting this page

Download any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2879 and hash its canonical field yourself, for example with shasum -a 256. You should get its content_hash. Each version’s text also ends with prev:and the hash of the version before it (version 1 points to 64 zeros). If anyone had changed a single character of any version after it was saved, those hashes wouldn’t line up.
