High-dose inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO) has been shown to have anti-inflammatory, vasodilator, and antimicrobial properties, resulting in improved arterial oxygenation as well as a beneficial therapeutic effect on lower respiratory tract infections. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of 150-ppm intermittent iNO administered with a novel iNO-generator, for treating adults hospitalised for viral pneumonia.… →
BACKGROUND: Early identification of an acute respiratory infection is important for reducing transmission and enabling earlier therapeutic intervention. We aimed to prospectively evaluate the feasibility of home-based diagnostic self-testing of viral pathogens in individuals prompted to do so on the basis of self-reported symptoms or individual changes in physiological parameters detected via a wearable sensor. →
CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that in this study NE3107 was associated with what appear to be positive neurophysiological and neuropsychological findings, as well as evidence of improvement in biomarkers associated with neuroinflammation and AD in patients diagnosed with dementia. Our findings are consistent with previous preclinical and clinical observations and highlight a central role of… →

Designing computational workflows for AI applications, such as chatbots and coding assistants, is complex due to the need to manage numerous heterogeneous parameters, such as prompts and ML hyper-parameters. Post-deployment errors require manual updates, adding to the challenge. The study explores optimization problems aimed at automating the design and updating of these workflows. Given their… →
Large Language Models (LLMs) are a subset of artificial intelligence focusing on understanding and generating human language. These models leverage complex architectures to comprehend and produce human-like text, facilitating applications in customer service, content creation, and beyond. A major challenge with LLMs is their efficiency when processing long texts. The Transformer architecture they use has… →
In the rapidly evolving field of natural language processing (NLP), integrating external knowledge bases through Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems represents a significant leap forward. These systems leverage dense retrievers to pull relevant information, which large language models (LLMs) then utilize to generate responses. However, while RAG systems have improved the performance of LLMs across various… →
The number of academic papers released daily is increasing, making it difficult for researchers to track all the latest innovations. Automating the data extraction process, especially from tables and figures, can allow researchers to focus on data analysis and interpretation rather than manual data extraction. With quicker access to relevant data, researchers can accelerate the… →
Developing AI agents that can autonomously perform a wide variety of tasks with the same flexibility and capability as human software developers presents a significant challenge. These tasks include writing and executing code, interacting with command lines, and browsing the web. Current AI agents often lack the necessary adaptability and generalization for such diverse and… →
