Assessing Large Language Models for Oncology Data Inference From Radiology Reports.

Purpose: We examined the effectiveness of proprietary and open large language models (LLMs) in detecting disease presence, location, and treatment response in pancreatic cancer from radiology reports.

Methods: We analyzed 203 deidentified radiology reports, manually annotated for disease status, location, and indeterminate nodules needing follow-up. Using generative pre-trained transformer (GPT)-4, GPT-3.

Readability of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures Used in Voice Disorders.

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate Turkish patient-reported outcome measures (PROM) used in voice disorders using different readability formulas and to examine the relationship between text-based features and readability values.

Study Design: A search was conducted to identify published Turkish PRO questionnaires related to dysphonia that are completed by patients.

Methods: A search was conducted to identify published PROM related to dysphonia that are completed by patients in a self-administered format.

Introducing the ELPIS scale: a novel tool for measuring emotional empathy toward cancer patients.

Empathy, defined as the ability to understand and share another person's feelings, is crucial in the healthcare setting, particularly for patients with cancer who face significant psychosocial challenges. We aimed to develop a novel tool, the Empathy, Life with Cancer, and Psychosocial Skills (ELPIS) Scale that prioritizes emotional and cognitive components in order to determine the reflection of the negative stigmatization of cancer in societies on individuals, excluding the behavioral and ethical dimensions of empathy. The study was conducted using a quantitative research design with a sample of first- and second-year medical students in Türkiye.

Unique Case of Cervical Split Cord Malformation Type II and Klippel-Feil Syndrome in a Male Patient Symptomatically Treated With Ultrasound-Guided Botulinum Toxin Injection.

The neural tube abnormality known as split cord malformation (SCM) is characterized by longitudinally separated functional hemicords. SCM is the result of a single basic ontogenetic error and may be associated with other anomalies. One such anomaly is Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS), which is characterized by abnormal fusion of two or more cervical vertebrae.
