CONCLUSION: It is necessary to implement telemedicine in Tunisia, especially in emergency services. It ensures better remote patient care by reducing re-consultation rates, increasing treatment adherence, and improving patient satisfaction. →
The newly developed portable oxygen concentrator with an auto-demand oxygen delivery system (auto-DODS) automatically switches between 3 sensitivities according to the negative pressure gradient of inhalation and supplies oxygen only during inhalation. The aim of this study was to verify the effectiveness and safety of auto-demand devices compared with a continuous flow oxygen concentrator, during… →
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare and frequently fatal lymphoma subtype. The programmed death-1 (PD-1) pathway has emerged as a potential therapeutic target, but the effectiveness of PD-1 antibody sintilimab in combination with immunochemotherapy as a frontline treatment for PCNSL remains to be determined. In this phase 2 trial (ChiCTR1900027433) with a… →
Artificial intelligence, particularly the development of large language models (LLMs), has been rapidly advancing, focusing on improving these models’ reasoning capabilities. As AI systems are increasingly tasked with complex problem-solving, it is crucial that they not only generate accurate solutions but also possess the ability to evaluate and refine their outputs critically. This enhancement in… →
Artificial intelligence (AI) has witnessed rapid advancements over the past decade, with significant strides in NLP, machine learning, and deep learning. Among the latest and most notable developments is the release of Llama-3.1-Storm-8B by Ashvini Kumar Jindal and team. This new AI model represents a considerable leap forward in language model capabilities, setting new benchmarks… →
BACKGROUND: Breast Cancer (BC) prevention strategies range from lifestyle changes such as increasing physical activity and reducing body weight to preventive drugs like tamoxifen, known to reduce BC incidence in high-risk women. Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) is related to BC risk due to its ability to bind circulating estradiol at high affinity and to… →
CONCLUSION: Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy using annatto and blue LED proved to be a viable therapeutic option for the treatment of halitosis in mouth-breathing children. →

As industries increasingly seek cost-effective and scalable AI solutions, miniG emerges as a transformative tool, setting… →
Background MRI plays a crucial role in restaging locally advanced rectal cancer treated with total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT); however, prospective studies have not evaluated its ability to accurately select patients for nonoperative management. Purpose To evaluate the ability of restaging MRI to predict oncologic outcomes and identify imaging features associated with residual disease (RD) after… →
BACKGROUNDIt is unknown whether the risk of kidney disease progression and failure differs between patients with and without genetic kidney disorders.METHODSThree cohorts were evaluated: the prospective Cure Glomerulonephropathy Network (CureGN) and 2 retrospective cohorts from Columbia University, including 5,727 adults and children with kidney disease from any etiology who underwent whole-genome or exome sequencing. The… →
