Article Synopsis
- The study examines how well ChatGPT answers common questions about female urinary incontinence (UI), focusing on the accuracy and completeness of its responses compared to established medical guidelines.* -
- Researchers tested 14 questions by assessing ChatGPT's answers on a scale for accuracy (1 to 5) and completeness (1 to 3), finding that while some answers were mostly correct, many lacked the detail provided in clinical guidelines.* -
- The findings raise concerns for healthcare professionals regarding the reliability of artificial intelligence in patient counseling, as most responses from ChatGPT fell short of expected completeness and accuracy specified in scientific guidelines.*
Objective: Postural assessment through photography is a simple method that allows the acquisition of quantitative values to define the alignment of body segments. The purpose of this study was to quantitatively assess the postural alignment of several body segments in standing through anterior, posterior, and lateral views.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 122 subjects were initially evaluated.
Background: Fibromyalgia is a painful syndrome characterized by widespread chronic pain and associated symptoms with a negative impact on quality of life.
Objectives: Considering the subjectivity of quality of life measurements, the aim of this study was to verify the discriminating power of two quality of life questionnaires in patients with fibromyalgia: the generic Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) and the specific Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ).
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 150 participants divided into Fibromyalgia Group (FG) and Control Group (CG) (n=75 in each group).
Objective: This study was designed to estimate the accuracy of the postural assessment software (PAS/SAPO) for measurement of corporal angles and distances as well as the inter- and intra-rater reliabilities.
Introduction: Postural assessment software was developed as a subsidiary tool for postural assessment. It is easy to use and available in the public domain.
