This mixed-methods study demonstrates that a forum-based, asynchronous case discussion strategy effectively supports learning in ocular semiology, showing a positive correlation between participation and grades while receiving favorable student feedback for its role in fostering self-directed and peer-based learning.
RarePathAI is a novel framework that leverages graph neural networks on U.S. administrative claims data and rare disease ontologies to achieve high-accuracy predictive analytics for early rare disease diagnosis, with future plans to integrate AI agents for real-time, explainable clinical decision support.
This Q methodology study identifies and compares the distinct yet overlapping priorities for ICU transitional care among patients, family members, and nurses, revealing that while all groups value needs response, patients focus on condition reassurance, families on condition confirmation, and nurses on pain control.
This randomized single-blinded clinical trial demonstrates that adding a serratus anterior plane block to standard analgesia significantly reduces acute post-thoracotomy pain scores at 6, 12, and 24 hours without serious side effects compared to conservative pain management alone.
This ethnobotanical study conducted across 25 markets in Burundi documents 121 plant species traditionally used by 64 practitioners to treat type 2 diabetes, highlighting key families like Asteraceae and Fabaceae, dominant usage of leaves and bark in decoctions, and the potential of these locally sourced remedies for developing affordable phytomedicines.
This retrospective study suggests that long-term magnesium sulfate therapy in preeclamptic women is associated with the preservation of placental syndecan-1 expression, potentially mitigating the reduction typically observed in untreated cases.
This study identifies three distinct family resilience profiles among hospitalized older adults with chronic multimorbidity in Xinjiang, China, and utilizes network analysis to reveal that learned helplessness symptom structures and optimal intervention targets vary significantly across these subgroups, supporting the need for personalized, resilience-tailored care.
This 10-year follow-up study using the Korean National Health Information Database found that high adherence to antipsychotic medication (PDC ≥ 0.8) significantly increases the likelihood of job acquisition among individuals with first-episode schizophrenia, particularly in men, supporting the integration of medication adherence management with vocational support for functional recovery.
This prospective observational study demonstrates that substituting total bilirubin with direct bilirubin in mortality prediction models (such as AARC, MELD, and MELD-Na) significantly enhances prognostic accuracy for patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure and offers comparable benefits for those with acute liver failure.
This multi-database study demonstrates that the total bilirubin to albumin ratio (TBAR) is an independent risk factor for in-hospital mortality in acute pancreatitis patients and that a support vector machine model integrating TBAR, age, and SOFA score provides optimal predictive performance.
