The Hidden Cost of AI-Assisted Creativity
Chris Gash/theispot.com The Research The authors synthesized findings from four studies spanning short-story writing, circular-economy solutions, humor caption contests, and collaborative storytelling. Across all four studies, AI assistance improved individual output quality, but it reduced collective diversity, resulting in more similar, convergent ideas across groups. AI had the greatest positive effect on individuals with lower… →

Validating a novel driving simulation-based MWT against the standard MWT in an OSA-cohort challenged by CPAP-withdrawal (DS-MWT2) — Protocol for a monocentric, controlled, randomized, crossover trial
BACKGROUND: Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a major yet under-recognized contributor to road traffic accidents. Traditional diagnostic tools, such as the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT), assess wakefulness under passive conditions but may not accurately reflect real-world driving risks. To address this gap, we have piloted a Driving Simulation-based MWT (DS-MWT), designed to evaluate sleepiness… →

Biomarker screen-guided care for preterm birth risk in nulliparous pregnancies: a subgroup analysis of the PRIME randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: In nulliparous PRIME trial participants, IGFBP4/SHBG screen-guided care reduced composite neonatal morbidity and NICU admissions compared to routine care. These findings support the clinical utility of biomarker-guided preventive strategies in first-time pregnancies lacking prior obstetric history. →
