Background: The integration of artificial intelligence into medicine has attracted increasing attention in recent years. ChatGPT has emerged as a promising tool for delivering evidence-based recommendations in various clinical domains. However, the application of ChatGPT to physical therapy for musculoskeletal conditions has yet to be investigated.

Purpose: This umbrella review aimed to identify, critically appraise, and summarize current systematic reviews with meta-analyses on the role of pelvic floor rehabilitation in cancer survivorship.
Methods: Four bibliographic databases were searched from inception to August 1, 2024. Two independent reviewers screened the titles and abstracts of 379 records and retrieved 24 full-text systematic reviews.
We propose a strategy to monolithically integrate active III-V lasers and passive dielectric devices, where the passive waveguides are fabricated after the MBE growth of the III-V semiconductors on a planar Si substrate. This avoids any airgap at the active/passive interface, replaced by a thin dielectric interface layer which improves the light coupling efficiency. We demonstrate GaSb DLs butt-coupled to SiN waveguides with ∼23% transmission after 2 mm SiN, corresponding to ∼35% transmission at the active/passive interface.

Methods: Five bibliographic databases in English and Chinese, PubMed, Embase, Scopus, CNKI, and Wanfang were searched from inception to May 15, 2024.
Article Synopsis
- - This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the effects of high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) on subacromial impingement syndrome, analyzing data from six clinical trials involving 284 patients.
- - Results showed that HILT led to significantly better pain relief and improved shoulder function compared to conventional therapies, both immediately after treatment and three months later, although it didn’t significantly improve shoulder flexion or external rotation range of motion.
- - The findings suggest that healthcare professionals and policymakers should consider incorporating high-intensity laser therapy into rehabilitation practices as a potentially more effective treatment option for this condition.
