EgoX introduces a novel framework for translating third-person (exocentric) videos into realistic first-person (egocentric) videos using only a single input video. The work tackles a highly challenging problem of extreme viewpoint transformation with minimal view overlap, leveraging pretrained video diffusion models and explicit geometric reasoning to generate coherent, high-fidelity egocentric videos. Key Highlights Single Exocentric… →
Matt Harrison Clough In 1982, millions of Americans tuned in to the ABC news program 20/20 to watch an exposé that shook the medical world to its core. The segment, titled “The Deep Sleep: 6,000 Will Die or Suffer Brain Damage,” told harrowing stories of patients harmed by anesthesia errors. The narrator warned viewers, “If you are going to… →
CONCLUSION: Aerobic exercise favorably altered skeletal muscle tissue characteristics and metabolic markers in prediabetes. Metformin did not attenuate these effects and may enhance IMAT reduction in subjects with high baseline IMAT. →

CONCLUSIONS: Baseline insight was not a strong predictor of short-term treatment outcomes following cET but was related to long-term OCD severity. Improvements in insight during cET were associated with achieving and maintaining reduced symptoms over time. These results suggest that improvements in OCD and enhanced insight are associated. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02656342. →

CONCLUSION: In our study, patients with moderate to severe rosacea treated with tranilast showed a favorable clinical response and experienced no serious adverse events. The combination therapy yielded better outcomes than minocycline monotherapy, especially in improving facial erythema. →

CONCLUSIONS: Asynchronous teleophthalmology reduces the number of unnecessary urgent referrals, the main drivers of increasing hospital capacity pressures, provides more appropriate referral-to-treatment times and is more cost-effective compared to standard care. The Octane artificial intelligence model could not process images from 48.5% of study participants. Compared to hospital-based experts for referral decisions, Octane was less… →

CONCLUSION: IGU monotherapy demonstrated significant improvements in composite, systemic and serologic outcomes compared with HCQ in active pSS and was well-tolerated. These findings establish IGU as a promising therapeutic option for pSS, particularly in the subset of patients with hyperglobulinaemia. →

CONCLUSIONS: In this study, the authors did not find any evidence of difference in the treatment effect of apalutamide on OS across patients of different races, although interpretation remains limited by poor representation of racial minorities. Among apalutamide-treated patients, there was no association of race with OS. →
