Open-source LLMs for text annotation: a practical guide for model setting and fine-tuning.

Unlabelled: This paper studies the performance of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) in text classification tasks typical for political science research. By examining tasks like stance, topic, and relevance classification, we aim to guide scholars in making informed decisions about their use of LLMs for text analysis and to establish a baseline performance benchmark that demonstrates the models' effectiveness. Specifically, we conduct an assessment of both zero-shot and fine-tuned LLMs across a range of text annotation tasks using news articles and tweets datasets.

Oleogelation of sunflower-linseed oils with carnauba wax as an innovative strategy for shortening substitution in cakes.

The aim of this study was to fabricate a carnauba wax oleogel with improved nutritional characteristics including reduced ω6:ω3 ratio and heightened alpha-linolenic acid through sunflower (SO): linseed oil (LO) in various ratios (100:0, 80:20, 70:30, 50:50, 30:70, 20:80, and 0:100 %), for potential shortening substitution in cakes. Combining LO with SO up to 50 % improved oleogel properties considering intra- or intermolecular hydrogen bonding and crystallinity. These oleogels had similar thermal behavior and better morphological structure than oleogel prepared exclusively with SO (100 SO), with reasonable oil binding capacity and oxidation stability.

Treatments for Olfactory Dysfunction in COVID-19: A Systematic Review.

 Olfactory dysfunction (OD) has emerged as a notable symptom among coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients, with its prevalence varying among different populations. Recognizing the need to provide therapeutic solutions for these individuals, the present study seeks to comprehensively review the current evidence on potential underlying mechanisms and treatment modalities to manage OD in COVID-19 patients.  To review the recent evidence on treatments for OD in COVID-19.

A Systematic Review of Telehealth Applications in Endocrinology.

Introduction: The prevalence of telehealth has witnessed a significant increase in various medical domains, especially in endocrinology. Telehealth brings about considerable advantages for both patients and health care professionals. However, despite these positive aspects, the growing prominence of telehealth is accompanied by certain challenges.
