A team of 30 authors introduced GUIDE, an AI‑assisted system for creating and updating clinical practice guidelines. In tests on 12 NICE eye‑care datasets, it recalled 88.9% of relevant papers and agreed with human recommendations 91.7% of the time, while experts only handled about 29% of the work. The system also performed similarly on 20 other medical areas and on six new datasets after the literature cutoff.

## The facts

- Published on 2026-10-14 ("Wed Oct 14 2026 06:00:00 GMT+0200")
- Guideline updates took an average of 162.2 minutes per dataset, a 71% reduction in human effort

## Why it matters

If adopted, GUIDE could let doctors and guideline panels refresh treatment recommendations much more quickly, keeping care aligned with the latest evidence.
