Introduction: The transformative feature of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the massive capacity for interpreting and transforming unstructured data into a coherent and meaningful context. In general, the potential that AI will alter traditional approaches to student research and its evaluation appears to be significant. With regard to research in global health, it is important for students and research experts to assess strengths and limitations of GenAI within this space.

We sought to analyze the prevalence of food insecurity and its association with ASCVD in adults with diabetes.
Methods: A total of 6424 participants with diabetes were included from the 2019 and 2020 National Health Interview Survey.
Background: Autologous blood transfusion is a common technique in cardiac surgery to directly re-infuse residual blood from the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit to the patient. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of reinfusion of unprocessed residual pump blood on the coagulation system after separation from the CPB circuit and reversal of systemic heparin with protamine.
Measurements And Main Results: After ethics approval, 40 participants undergoing cardiac surgery were recruited in a prospective single center cohort study.

Background: ABO blood group iso-antibodies are naturally occurring antibodies found in serum and other body fluids.
Methods: Serum, saliva and milk samples from 5 mothers identified as "Bombay" phenotype were tested for ABH-iso-antibodies by routine serological techniques.
Results: All the five mothers showed presence of iso-antibodies in the samples tested.
