AI in radiology: From promise to practice - A guide to effective integration.

While Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform the field of diagnostic radiology, important obstacles still inhibit its integration into clinical environments. Foremost among them is the inability to integrate clinical information and prior and concurrent imaging examinations, which can lead to diagnostic errors that could irreversibly alter patient care. For AI to succeed in modern clinical practice, model training and algorithm development need to account for relevant background information that may influence the presentation of the patient in question.

Effect of Antibiotic Administration Before Joint Aspiration on Synovial Fluid White Blood Cell Count in Native Joint Septic Arthritis.

Background: This study was performed to assess the impact of preaspiration antibiotics on synovial fluid analysis and timing of operative treatment in native-joint septic arthritis.

Methods: We performed a retrospective record review of adult patients from an urban level 1 trauma center with native joint septic arthritis in 2015-2019, identified by means of codes from the ( and ). Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine whether antibiotics were associated with lower synovial fluid white blood cell counts (WBCs), the percentage of polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMNs), and rate of culture positivity.

Farming for Life: Pilot assessment of the impact of medical prescriptions for vegetables on health and food security among Latino adults with type 2 diabetes.

Background: In the United States, Latino families have a disproportionate burden of diabetes and associated complications.

Aim: This pilot study assessed the feasibility of using medical prescriptions of organic vegetables to improve health outcomes among Latinos with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Methods: Latino participants ( = 21, 91% female, age 56 ± 11.

Oral Health and Cancer.

Purpose Of Review: Recently published studies have provided new evidence for a role of oral health on risk of cancer. This review summarizes the latest research on this topic, including several new cohort studies that have examined associations on periodontal disease and cancer risk.

Recent Findings: The most consistent findings for associations with periodontal disease have been observed for lung cancer; five out of seven studies have reported statistically significant increases in risk of lung cancer.
