Can people with epilepsy trust AI chatbots for information on physical exercise?

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the similarity, readability, and alignment with current scientific knowledge of responses from AI-based chatbots to common questions about epilepsy and physical exercise.

Methods: Four AI chatbots (ChatGPT-3.5,ChatGPT 4, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot) were evaluated.

Disability, Physical Activity, and Their Correlates in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Portuguese Cross-Sectional Survey.

Knowledge about disability and physical activity is critical for enhancing self- and clinical management of inflammatory bowel disease, but the interplay between the two is unknown. This study aimed to explore the correlates of disability and physical activity in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. A cross-sectional online survey was conducted in 2019 in Portuguese patients (n = 108) capturing disability, clinical factors including disease status and comorbidities, physical activity habits, and barriers.

Percutaneous nephrostomy versus ureteral stent in hydronephrosis secondary to obstructive urolithiasis: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: To assess if there is a preferable intervention between retrograde ureteral stent (RUS) and percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) tube, in cases of upper urinary tract stone obstruction with complications requiring urgent drainage, by evaluating outcomes regarding urinary symptoms, quality of life (QoL), spontaneous stone passage, and length of hospital stays, since there is no literature stating the superiority of one modality over the other.

Methods: We searched MEDLINE and other sources for relevant articles in June 2019 without any date restrictions or filters applied. The selection was done first by the title and abstract screening and then by full-text assessment for eligibility.

Alteration in the Expression of Circular Rnas and its association with the Development and Progression of Osteosarcoma, an Integrative Review with High Sensitivity Research.

Background: Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor, mainly affecting children, young adults, and the elderly. It is an aggressive cancer with a poor prognosis, exhibiting low survival rates even with standard treatment. Recently, circular RNA molecules capable of influencing gene expression through various functions, with their main role being acting as microRNA sponges and reducing their intracellular expression, have been identified.

Hybrid distributed Bragg reflector laser on Si with a transfer printed InAs/GaAs quantum dot amplifier.

We demonstrate a hybrid integrated laser by transfer printing an InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) amplifier on a Si waveguide with distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs). The QD waveguide amplifier of 1.6 mm long was patterned in the form of an airbridge with the help of a spin-on-glass sacrificial layer and precisely integrated on the silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide by pick-and-place assembly using an elastomer stamp.
