Background: Surveillance of surgical site infection (SSI) relies on manual methods that are time-consuming and prone to subjectivity. This study evaluates the diagnostic accuracy of ChatGPT for detecting SSI from electronic health records after colorectal surgery via comparison with the results of a nationwide surveillance programme.
Methods: This pilot, retrospective, multicentre analysis included 122 patients who underwent colorectal surgery.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy fails to achieve durable responses in over 60% of relapsed/refractory (R/R) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) patients in the third or later line setting. After CAR-T failure, survival outcomes are heterogeneous and a prognostic model in this patient population is lacking. A training cohort of 216 patients with progressive disease (PD) after CAR-T from 12 Spanish centers was used to develop the Post-CAR Prognostic Index (PC-PI); primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) from CAR-T progression.

Among them, synthetic cannabinoids receptor agonists (SCRAs) currently stand as the most widely consumed NPS family in Europe. Since the detection of JWH-018 in 2008, the structures of these compounds have evolved to circumvent legislation and/or enhance their effects, consequently increasing the number of reported SCRAs to be monitored.

In the last decades, the alarming increase in multidrug resistance evolved by this pathogen has led to a marked drop in the eradication rates of traditional therapies worldwide. By using a high-throughput screening strategy, in combination with in vitro DNA binding assays and antibacterial activity testing, we identified a battery of novel drug-like HsrA inhibitors with MIC values ranging from 0.

To combat priority pathogens, like , the development of novel therapies is of utmost importance. Understanding the molecular alterations induced by medications is critical for the design of multi-targeting treatments capable of eradicating the infection and mitigating its pathogenicity.
