Bridging the gap: Evaluating ChatGPT-generated, personalized, patient-centered prostate biopsy reports.

Objective: The highly specialized language used in prostate biopsy pathology reports coupled with low rates of health literacy leave some patients unable to comprehend their medical information. Patients' use of online search engines can lead to misinterpretation of results and emotional distress. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as ChatGPT (OpenAI) could simplify complex texts and help patients.

Central Nervous System Infections in Recipients of Solid Organ Transplant.

Background: Central nervous system (CNS) infections are severe and life-threatening complications that can occur in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients. We describe the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, disease course, and outcome of CNS infections in SOT.

Methods: We analyzed data of patients who underwent transplantation from September 2012 to February 2023, diagnosed and treated for CNS infections at our institution in Houston, TX.

Hearing in Two Closely Related Species ( and ).

The genus has been extensively used as a model for ecological, behavioral, and evolutionary investigations. We used auditory brainstem responses (ABRs), craniofacial morphology, and pinna measurements to compare characteristics that impact hearing in two wild-caught species, . We observed significant statistical differences in craniofacial and pinna attributes between species with overall exhibiting larger features than .

Meniscal tear analysis in anterior cruciate ligament rupture: A retrospective comparison of early versus delayed intervention.

Introduction: Combined anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and meniscal tear patterns and their effect on knee stability have been widely researched, however, their evolution and repairability from time of injury have been scarcely addressed. When addressed with delay, meniscal lesions associated with ACL tears may increase in severity and irreparability. This study aims to investigate the incidence, rate and pattern of meniscus tears in the context of ACL deficient knees and to assess the meniscal condition in early versus late ACL reconstruction (ACLR).

Who feels safe calling 911: are prior experiences of anti-Black racial discrimination associated with hesitancy seeking emergency medical services in the event of accidental drug overdose? - a study protocol.

Background: Racial discrimination is associated with health disparities among Black Americans, a group that has experienced an increase in rates of fatal drug overdose. Prior research has found that racial discrimination in the medical setting may be a barrier to addiction treatment. Nevertheless, it is unknown how experiences of racial discrimination might impact engagement with emergency medical services for accidental drug overdose.
