As the healthcare community increasingly harnesses the power of generative artificial intelligence (AI), critical issues of security, privacy and regulation take centre stage. In this paper, we explore the security and privacy risks of generative AI from model-level and data-level perspectives. Moreover, we elucidate the potential consequences and case studies within the domain of ophthalmology.

There are currently no viable low-cost, noninvasive procedures for assessing cerebral perfusion in the operating room. This study aims to investigate the use of intraoperative laser speckle contrast image (LSCI) software in AVM surgery.

Its concurrence with varying ophthalmic findings is relatively rare yet may lead to irreversible blindness. We performed a search and review of the literature to characterize the relevance of MMD (excluding moyamoya syndrome) and ophthalmic findings.

To prevent the rapid spread of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and treat patients with mild symptoms, sports stadiums and convention centers were reconstructed into mobile hospitals.
Research Question: It is unknown whether a mobile cabin hospital can provide a safe treatment site for patients with mild COVID-19 symptoms.
Superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis is generally considered as an effective method in improving damage associated with intracerebral occlusions in moyamoya disease. Hemodynamic changes caused by revascularization are the cause of many postoperative complications. Of the 186 consecutive surgeries for moyamoya disease at our hospital from 2015, we herein presented one case of adult-onset moyamoya disease that manifested symptomatic local cerebral edema and local hypoperfusion caused by the 'watershed shift'.

The conversion of jatropha oil over Al-MCM-41-supported Ni, W, and Ni-W catalysts was studied at 3 MPa and 360 °C. Over the monometallic Ni and W catalysts, the biofuel yield was low, about 19.
