Objective: Given the good prognosis of low-risk papillary thyroid microcarcinomas (lrPTMCs), accurate risk stratification is valuable to optimize management: active surveillance (AS) vs. hemithyroidectomy (HT). BRAF positive lrPTMC is associated with increased recurrence risk; hence, AS was suggested for mutation-negative lrPTMC.

This study compares Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)-enhanced LLMs to provider-assigned codes in producing ICD-10-CM codes from emergency department (ED) clinical records.
Methods: Retrospective cohort study using 500 ED visits randomly selected from the Mount Sinai Health System between January and April 2024.

Objectives: Large language models, including ChatGPT, has the potential to transform the way we approach medical knowledge, yet accuracy in clinical topics is critical. Here we assessed ChatGPT's performance in adhering to the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery guidelines.
Methods: We presented ChatGPT with 24 clinical otolaryngology questions based on the guidelines of the American Academy of Otolaryngology.
Article Synopsis
- The field of vestibular science has significantly advanced in the last 50 years, focusing on the vestibular system and related disorders, with key areas including epidemiology, pathologies, diagnostic methods, and treatments.
- An analysis of over 39,000 publications from the NCBI PubMed database revealed increasing research trends, notably on conditions like BPPV, Meniere's disease, and a surge in studies about vestibular migraine.
- Common diagnostic tools identified were ENG/VNG and VEMP, with physiotherapy emerging as the main treatment, showcasing the dynamic evolution of research in this field.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess how different factors, like audio equipment and language use, affect vocal habits during online meetings (OMs) in a group of forty participants.
- - Participants experienced various setups, including different audio devices and languages, while their vocal effort and performance were recorded and analyzed.
- - Key findings revealed that speaking in a second language and using a computer's built-in microphone led to increased vocal strain, which could heighten the risk of vocal damage.
