Introduction: Artificial Intelligences (AIs) are changing the way information is accessed and consumed globally. This study aims to evaluate the information quality provided by AIs ChatGPT4 and Claude2 concerning reconstructive surgery for head and neck cancer.
Methods: Thirty questions on reconstructive surgery for head and neck cancer were directed to both AIs and 16 head and neck surgeons assessed the responses using the QAMAI questionnaire.
Background: Despite alterations in the sense of smell and taste have dominated the symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection, the prevalence and the severity of self-reporting COVID-19 associated olfactory and gustatory dysfunction has dropped significantly with the advent of the Omicron BA.1 subvariant. However, data on the evolution of Omicron-related chemosensory impairment are still lacking.

- The study explores the rising rates of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCCs) associated with HPV infections in Northeastern Italy, revealing an increase from 12% to 50% in HPV-driven cases between 2000-2022.
- A total of 390 patients were included, with findings showing that HPV-driven OPSCCs are more prevalent in the tonsils and base of the tongue, reaching 59%, compared to less than 10% in other areas.
- The research highlights the need for institutions to consider specific prevalence rates when using p16 overexpression as a marker for HPV-driven cancers, as this significantly influences its predictive value.
Purpose: The aim of the present study was to estimate the 1 year prevalence and recovery rate of self-reported chemosensory dysfunction in a series of subjects with previous mild-to-moderate symptomatic COVID-19.
Methods: Prospective study based on the SNOT-22, item "sense of smell or taste" and additional outcomes.
Results: 268/315 patients (85.
