Fetal echocardiography (ultrasound of the fetal heart) plays a vital role in identifying heart defects, allowing clinicians to establish prenatal and postnatal management plans. Machine learning-based methods are emerging to support the automation of fetal echocardiographic analysis; this review presents the findings from a literature review in this area. Searches were queried at leading indexing platforms ACM, IEEE Xplore, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, including papers published until July 2023.

Introduction: The study objective was to describe characteristics and utilization patterns of tirzepatide users with type 2 diabetes (T2D) using the Healthcare Integrated Research Database in the USA.

Methods: Adults (≥18 years) included had T2D diagnosis; ≥1 tirzepatide claim (May 2022-January 2023; first claim date = index date); and continuous medical and pharmacy enrollment during the 6-month baseline and follow-up periods from the index date. Baseline demographics, clinical characteristics, and 6-month follow-up dosing and treatment patterns were summarized descriptively.

Background: Thyroid cancer primarily affects young women and raises concerns about future fertility due to treatments of thyroidectomy and radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy. This study investigated the effects of these treatments on pregnancy probability in young female patients post-diagnosis.

Methods: A nationwide, population-based study using data from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database (2000-2017) examined pregnancy likelihood in women ≤45 years with thyroid cancer.

Background: A novel anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) GQ1001 was assessed in patients with previously treated HER2 positive advanced solid tumors in a global multi-center phase Ia dose escalation trial.

Methods: In this phase Ia trial, a modified 3 + 3 study design was adopted during dose escalation phase. Eligible patients were enrolled, and GQ1001 monotherapy was administered intravenously every 3 weeks.

Backgrounds: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is widely used for the evaluation of mental workload (MWL), but it is not yet clear whether it is affected by physical factors during cognitive tasks. Therefore, the combined effects of physical and cognitive loads on hemodynamic features in the prefrontal cortex were evaluated.

Methods: Thirty-three eligible healthy male subjects were asked to perform three types of cognitive tasks (1-back, 2-back and 3-back).
