Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by impaired inhibitory circuitry and GABAergic dysfunction, which is associated with reduced fast brain oscillations in the gamma band (γ, 30-90 Hz) in several animal models. Investigating such activity in human patients could lead to the identification of novel biomarkers of diagnostic and prognostic value. The current study aimed to test a multimodal "Perturbation-based" transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation-Electroencephalography (tACS)-EEG protocol to detect how responses to tACS in AD patients correlate with patients' clinical phenotype.

The aim of this study was to assess the reliability and accuracy of cartilage thickness measurements in the knee using a CS-enabled isotropic 3D Fast Spin-Echo (FSE) sequence on a 3-T MRI scanner.
Methods: Twenty-eight tibial condyle sections were collected from 14 adult patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty.
Indication and Technical Consideration for Nerve Blocks and Neurolysis for Pain Control.

Pain management in interventional radiology (IR) encompasses a variety of advanced image-guided techniques to deliver minimally invasive treatments for various pain conditions. Key procedures include nerve blocks and neurolysis, which target specific nerves to provide substantial pain relief. Effective pain management in IR relies on a thorough understanding of regional anatomy, precise technique, and careful administration of local anesthetics, neurolytic agents, and corticosteroids.

- The text discusses the rapid development of Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI's GPT and their increasing importance in fields such as science and medicine, yet highlights the need for evaluating their quality and effectiveness in statistical applications.
- The project's objective is to explore the utility and satisfaction of LLMs in statistical consulting by creating and assessing a training module, while identifying strengths and areas for improvement.
- The study employs a multimodal approach, incorporating both qualitative and quantitative methods across four parts to gather insights on using LLMs in consulting, evaluating training effectiveness, and understanding staff experiences and attitudes at the Medical Center and University of Freiburg.
