Advances in computer science and data-analytic methods are driving a new era in mental health research and application. Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies hold the potential to enhance the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of people experiencing mental health problems and to increase the reach and impact of mental health care. However, AI applications will not mitigate mental health disparities if they are built from historical data that reflect underlying social biases and inequities.

- The DRAGON 1 trial investigates the training, implementation, safety, and feasibility of a combined portal- and hepatic-vein embolization (PVE/HVE) approach to encourage liver growth in patients with borderline resectable colorectal cancer liver metastases.
- The study is a worldwide multicenter, single-arm trial, with primary endpoints focusing on the safety of the procedure and 90-day mortality, while secondary endpoints look at resection feasibility, liver function, and overall survival rates.
- The findings aim to standardize procedures for future trials and enhance understanding of the safety and effects of PVE/HVE on liver growth in this patient population.
Skin injuries may occur when radiation doses to the skin exceed 2 Gy. This study aimed to measure changes in skin microcirculation in patients undergoing chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary interventions (CTO-PCI). In 14 patients, peak skin dose (PSD) was estimated with radiographic films and skin microcirculation was assessed with laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI), before, 1 day after the intervention, and 4-6 weeks later.

We investigated the various materials for effectiveness in inducing future liver remnant (FLR) hypertrophy, technical and growth success rates, and complication and resection rates.
Methods: A systematic review from 1998 to 2019 on embolization materials for PVE was performed on Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane.
Background: The aim was to clarify whether children born preterm with a history of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) had an increased risk of rickets, fractures, and/or vitamin D deficiency during childhood and adolescence compared to controls without NEC, matched for gestational age.
Methods: All infants born in Sweden between 1987 and 2009 with a gestational age <32 + 0 weeks and a diagnosis of NEC were identified. Totally, 465 children with a history of NEC and 2127 controls were included.
