Impact of human and artificial intelligence collaboration on workload reduction in medical image interpretation.

Clinicians face increasing workloads in medical imaging interpretation, and artificial intelligence (AI) offers potential relief. This meta-analysis evaluates the impact of human-AI collaboration on image interpretation workload. Four databases were searched for studies comparing reading time or quantity for image-based disease detection before and after AI integration.

The Distribution of Cervical Transformation Zone and Its Impact on Colposcopic Diagnosis: A Multicenter Study in China.

Objective: The value of the transformation zone (TZ) is often overlooked in clinical settings. This study aims to assess TZ distribution, associated factors, and its impact on colposcopic diagnosis.

Methods: χ 2 tests were used to analyze demographics, clinical history, and tissue samples to examine the differences in TZ distribution.

Chinese colposcopists' attitudes toward the colposcopic artificial intelligence auxiliary diagnostic system (CAIADS): A nation-wide, multi-center survey.

Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the attitudes toward the Colposcopic Artificial Intelligence Auxiliary Diagnostic System (CAIADS) of colposcopists working in mainland China.

Methods: A questionnaire was developed to collect participants' sociodemographic information and assess their awareness, attitudes, and acceptance toward the CAIADS.

Results: There were 284 respondents from 24 provinces across mainland China, with 55% working in primary care institutions.

Distribution and diagnostic value of single and multiple high-risk HPV infections in detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia: A retrospective multicenter study in China.

The risk associated with single and multiple human papillomavirus (HPV) infections in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) remains uncertain. This study aims to explore the distribution and diagnostic significance of the number of high-risk HPV (hr-HPV) infections in detecting CIN, addressing a crucial gap in our understanding. This comprehensive multicenter, retrospective study meticulously analyzed the distribution of single and multiple hr-HPV, the risk of CIN2+, the relationship with CIN, and the impact on the diagnostic performance of colposcopy using demographic information, clinical histories, and tissue samples.

Emerging role of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosome microRNA in radiation injury.

Purpose: Radiation injury (RI) is a common occurrence in malignant tumors patients receiving radiation therapy. While killing tumor cells, normal tissue surrounding the target area is inevitably irradiated at a certain dose, which can cause varying results of radiation injury. Currently, there are limited clinical treatments available for radiation injuries.

Assessing colposcopy competencies in medically underserved communities: a multi-center study in China.

Background: Colposcopy plays an essential role in diagnosing cervical lesions and directing biopsy; however, there are few studies of the capabilities of colposcopists in medically underserved communities in China. This study aims to fill this gap by assessing colposcopists' competencies in medically underserved communities of China.

Methods: Colposcopists in medically underserved communities across China were considered eligible to participate.

Genotype, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, and type-specific cervical intraepithelial neoplasia distributions in hrHPV+ cases referred to colposcopy: A multicenter study of Chinese mainland women.

To investigate age and type-specific prevalences of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) in hrHPV+ women referred to colposcopy. This is a retrospective, multicenter study. Participants were women referred to one of seven colposcopy clinics in China after testing positive for hrHPV.

Development and validation of a prognostic nomogram for breast cancer patients who underwent chemoradiotherapy and surgery: a retrospective cohort study based on the SEER database and two Chinese cohorts.

There is no strong evidence indicating the optimal treatment for breast cancer (BC) and no specific prognostic model. The aim of this study was to establish nomograms to predict the overall survival (OS) of BC patients receiving chemoradiotherapy and surgery, thereby quantifying survival benefits and improving patient management. A total of 1877 patients with primary nonmetastatic BC who received chemoradiotherapy and surgery from 2010 to 2019 were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database as the training cohort, 804 as the internal validation cohort, and 796 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (n=324) and Jiaxing Maternal and Child Health Hospital (n=472) as the external validation cohort.

Enhancing colposcopy training using a widely accessible digital education tool in China.

Background: Colposcopy is a cornerstone of cervical cancer prevention; however, there is a global shortage of colposcopists. It is challenging to train a sufficient number of colposcopists through in-person methods, which hinders our ability to adequately diagnose and manage positive cases. A digital platform is needed to make colposcopy training more efficient, scalable, and sustainable; however, current online training programs are generally based on didactic curricula that do not incorporate image analysis training.

Factor market distortion, technological innovation, and environmental pollution.

Factor market distortion is a critical factor that affects environmental pollution, and technological innovation is regarded as a new opportunity to alleviate environmental pollution. Based on panel data from 30 Chinese provinces from 2003 to 2019, this study constructs an intermediary effect model to test the influence mechanism of factor market distortion on regional environmental pollution and the intermediary effect of technological innovation, exploring these effects based on spatial differentiation characteristics. This study shows that factor market distortion protects industries with backward production capacity, high resource consumption, serious pollution, and low production efficiency from elimination; hinders the transformation and upgrading of the regional industrial structure; and forms a lock in the sloppy growth mode, which directly affects the improvement of regional environmental quality.

Highly Conducting MXene-Silver Nanowire Transparent Electrodes for Flexible Organic Solar Cells.

MXene, a new class of two-dimensional materials, offers a unique combination of metallic conductivity and hydrophilicity. This material has shown great promise in numerous applications including electromagnetic interference shielding, sensing, energy storage, and catalysis. In this paper, we report on the fabrication of transparent, conductive, and flexible MXene/silver nanowire (AgNW) hybrid films, resulting in the highest figure of merit (162.

Bioinspired Ultrasensitive and Stretchable MXene-Based Strain Sensor via Nacre-Mimetic Microscale "Brick-and-Mortar" Architecture.

The development of wearable strain sensors with simultaneous large stretchability (strain >55%) and high sensitivity (gauge factor >100) remains a grand challenge to this day. Drawing on inspiration from nature, nacre has demonstrated outstanding mechanical properties, especially combining high strength and toughness, which is due in part to its delicate hierarchical layered architecture with rich interfacial interactions. We demonstrate that strain sensors based on this nacre-mimetic microscale "brick-and-mortar" architecture can simultaneously achieve ultrahigh sensitivity and large stretchability while performing well in linearity, reliability, long-term durability, and monotonicity.

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Luminescent Properties of Eu3+ Doped Sr3Al2O6 Phosphor for White LED.
