CONCLUSION: Diabetic patients with distal sensorimotor polyneuropathy benefit from physical treatment with administration of electrical stimulation (four-chamber galvanic bath) or a therapy with heated granulated stones three times a week. Our results indicate that heated stone therapy may be a potential treatment option. However, further research is required to understand the underlying biological processes. →
Cancer-related fatigue(CRF) is a prevalent and distressing symptom among cancer patients. This study aimed to assess the initial effectiveness and safety of 3.95 μm infrared moxibustion for CRF. A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 65 CRF-diagnosed cancer patients, where the treatment group received 3.95 μm infrared moxibustion on on the ST36 (bilateral), CV4, and… →
BACKGROUND: The optimal scheduling of PD-1 inhibitors with neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with early triple-negative breast cancer is unknown. We aimed to investigate the activity of two differing schedules of neoadjuvant nivolumab initiation with 12 weeks of carboplatin and paclitaxel for this patient population. →
BACKGROUND: Metastasis-directed therapy by stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has been shown to improve clinical outcomes in the oligometastatic prostate cancer setting. We aimed to investigate whether short-course androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and SBRT at all oligometastatic sites versus SBRT alone improves clinical progression-free survival in men with metachronous oligorecurrent hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. →
In this tutorial, we will look into how to easily perform sentiment analysis on text data using IBM’s open-source Granite 3B model integrated with Hugging Face Transformers. Sentiment analysis, a widely-used natural language processing (NLP) technique, helps quickly identify the emotions expressed in text. It makes it invaluable for businesses aiming to understand customer feedback… →
Large Language Models (LLMs) have significantly advanced due to the Transformer architecture, with recent models like Gemini-Pro1.5, Claude-3, GPT4, and Llama3.1 demonstrating capabilities to process hundreds of thousands of tokens. However, these expanded context lengths introduce critical challenges for practical deployment. As sequence length increases, decoding latency escalates and memory constraints become severe bottlenecks. The… →
Here is a recap of what happened in the search forums today, through the eyes of the Search Engine Roundtable and other search forums on the web. Google launched its AI mode, but it is in beta and you need to be added to a waitlist… →
Google has officially announced Google AI Mode, after hearing rumors about it for months and then seeing leaked screenshots of it a few weeks ago. Google said AI mode gives you more advanced reasoning, thinking and multimodal capabilities so you can get help with even your toughest questions. →
In December, Google told us they are testing powering AI Overviews using Gemini 2.0. We think we even saw Google testing this in the wild with deeper AI Overviews with tons of links. Well, now, in the U.S. AI Overviews are officially powered by Gemini 2.0, it is no longer a test. →
Google is testing more favicon designs within Google Search. I mean, we cover these way too often but hey, I like favicons, don’t you? →
