ChatGPT performance in laryngology and head and neck surgery: a clinical case-series.

Objectives: To study the performance of ChatGPT in the management of laryngology and head and neck (LHN) cases.

Methods: History and clinical examination of patients consulting at the Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery department were presented to ChatGPT, which was interrogated for differential diagnosis, management, and treatment. The ChatGPT performance was assessed by two blinded board-certified otolaryngologists using the following items of a composite score and the Ottawa Clinic Assessment Tool: differential diagnosis; additional examination; and treatment options.

Feasibility and acceptance of a nonpharmacological cognitive remediation intervention for patients with Parkinson disease.

Many patients with idiopathic Parkinson disease (PD) experience deficits in executive skills (ES; eg, attentional control, self-monitoring), which are associated with a range of impairing symptoms such as visual hallucinations, decreased motor control, and increased apathy. Pharmacological methods for improving ES in PD have shown to be somewhat unreliable. The goal of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and patient acceptance of a nonpharmacological cognitive remediation program that aimed to improve sustained, selective, alternating, and divided attentional abilities in a sample of 16 nondemented PD patients.

A Novel Approach to Treating Anxiety and Enhancing Executive Skills in an Older Adult with Parkinson's Disease.

Scientific interest in the nonmotoric symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) has increased dramatically, and psychiatric symptoms (e.g., cognitive impairment, anxiety and mood disorders) are now considered prime targets for treatment optimization.
