In oral and maxillofacial surgery, the evolution of minimally invasive techniques has revolutionised the management of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. At the forefront of this advancement lies TMJ arthroscopy, a procedure that offers a precise approach to diagnosing and treating joint issues. TMJ arthroscopy is indicated in various clinical scenarios where a detailed evaluation and targeted interventions within the TMJ are required to alleviate symptoms, improve joint function, and enhance the overall quality of life of patients suffering from TMJ disorders.

- Advances in deep learning systems show promise for improving clinical decision-making in medical diagnoses, but the effectiveness of combining physician expertise with machine learning is still uncertain, particularly when dealing with underrepresented populations.
- A large-scale study involving nearly 850 physicians evaluated their diagnostic accuracy using a teledermatology simulation with 364 skin disease images, revealing that specialist dermatologists had an accuracy of 38% while primary-care physicians had only 19%.
- Although the integration of fair deep learning assistance improved overall diagnostic accuracy by over 33%, it highlighted and worsened the existing diagnostic disparities between skin tones, showing that enhancing accuracy doesn't eliminate bias in the system.
Background: Racial inequities for patients with heart failure (HF) have been widely documented. HF patients who receive cardiology care during a hospital admission have better outcomes. It is unknown whether there are differences in admission to a cardiology or general medicine service by race.
