Advancing psychosocial disability and psychosocial rehabilitation research through large language models and computational text mining.

Psychosocial rehabilitation and psychosocial disability research have been a longstanding topic in healthcare, demanding continuous exploration and analysis to enhance patient and clinical outcomes. As the prevalence of psychosocial disability research continues to attract scholarly attention, many scientific articles are being published in the literature. These publications offer profound insights into diagnostics, preventative measures, treatment strategies, and epidemiological factors.

Generative AI in orthopedics: an explainable deep few-shot image augmentation pipeline for plain knee radiographs and Kellgren-Lawrence grading.

Objectives: Recently, deep learning medical image analysis in orthopedics has become highly active. However, progress has been restricted by the absence of large-scale and standardized ground-truth images. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to propose an innovative solution, namely a deep few-shot image augmentation pipeline, that addresses this challenge by synthetically generating knee radiographs for training downstream tasks, with a specific focus on knee osteoarthritis Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grading.

Reducing Cardiovascular Disparities in Kentucky: The Design, Implementation, and Evaluation of the Cardiovascular Assessment Risk Reduction and Education Self-Measured Blood Pressure (CARE SMBP) Monitoring Program.

Hypertension is a leading risk factor in cardiovascular disease (CVD) with the highest national rates in southeastern and Appalachian counties. To reduce hypertension health disparities and CVD risk, the Kentucky Department for Public Health Heart Disease and Stroke Program (KHDSP) designed, implemented, and continuously evaluated the Cardiovascular Assessment Risk Reduction and Education Self-Measured Blood Pressure (CARE SMBP) program in rural and Appalachian Kentucky. Ten health care systems and two local health departments implemented CARE SMBP.

Statins' effect on plasma levels of Coenzyme Q10 and improvement in myopathy with supplementation.

Purpose: Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, or statins, are medications at the forefront of the battle against cardiovascular disease. Despite their effectiveness, patient compliance with statins has lagged because of medication cost and adverse effects, namely myopathy.
