Background: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends test-of-cure (TOC) for persons with pharyngeal gonorrhea (GC) 7-14 days after treatment. We investigated the yield and feasibility of routine pharyngeal GC TOC to detect treatment failures.

Methods: During May 2021-July 2022, four U.

Red teaming, the practice of adversarially exposing unexpected or undesired model behaviors, is critical towards improving equity and accuracy of large language models, but non-model creator-affiliated red teaming is scant in healthcare. We convened teams of clinicians, medical and engineering students, and technical professionals (80 participants total) to stress-test models with real-world clinical cases and categorize inappropriate responses along axes of safety, privacy, hallucinations/accuracy, and bias. Six medically-trained reviewers re-analyzed prompt-response pairs and added qualitative annotations.

A search is presented for an extended Higgs sector with two new particles, X and ϕ, in the process X→ϕϕ→(γγ)(γγ). Novel neural networks classify events with diphotons that are merged and determine the diphoton masses. The search uses LHC proton-proton collision data at sqrt[s]=13  TeV collected with the CMS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138  fb^{-1}.

Background: Thalassemia is a chronic condition which has psychosocial impact on children and their caregivers. To ensure appropriate medical management and social support, it is important that these children are enrolled in a proper day care centre led by a haematologist or trained paediatrician. This study assesses the impact of dedicated thalassemia day care services in lives of patients with thalassemia.

Purpose: To compare anatomic biomarkers on spectral-domain OCT between faricimab, a dual angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2)/VEGF-A inhibitor, and aflibercept in a pooled analysis of results from the YOSEMITE/RHINE trials in diabetic macular edema (DME).

Design: YOSEMITE/RHINE (NCT03622580/NCT03622593) were identical, randomized, double-masked, active comparator-controlled, 100-week phase III noninferiority trials.

Participants: Adults with visual acuity loss due to center-involving DME.
