Backgroud Generative language models (GLM) utilize machine learning algorithms to perform various tasks such as text generation, question response, and sentence completion by imitating the language that humans understand and use.

Purpose This study was to fine-tune the Llama2 language model using text data from books on the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal system in physical therapy and compare it to the base model to determine its usability in medical fields.

Results Compared to the base model, the fine-tuned model consistently generated answers specific to the musculoskeletal system diagnosis and treatment, demonstrating improved understanding of the specialized domain.

Conclusion The model fine-tuned for musculoskeletal diagnosis and treatment books provided more detailed information related to musculoskeletal topics, and the use of this fine-tuned model could be helpful in medical education and the acquisition of specialized knowledge.

N/A

I confirm that all necessary patient/participant consent has been obtained and the appropriate institutional forms have been archived, and that any patient/participant/sample identifiers included were not known to anyone (e.g., hospital staff, patients or participants themselves) outside the research group so cannot be used to identify individuals.

Yes

I understand that all clinical trials and any other prospective interventional studies must be registered with an ICMJE-approved registry, such as ClinicalTrials.gov. I confirm that any such study reported in the manuscript has been registered and the trial registration ID is provided (note: if posting a prospective study registered retrospectively, please provide a statement in the trial ID field explaining why the study was not registered in advance).

Yes

I have followed all appropriate research reporting guidelines, such as any relevant EQUATOR Network research reporting checklist(s) and other pertinent material, if applicable.
