Clinical Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Occupational Health: A Systematic Literature Review.

Objectives: The aims of the study are to identify and to critically analyze studies using artificial intelligence (AI) in occupational health.

Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, IEEE Xplore, and Web of Science was conducted to identify relevant articles published in English between January 2014-January 2024. Quality was assessed with the validated APPRAISE-AI tool.

LC-OCT as a tool to visualize in vivo location of dermal fillers.

Background: Dermal fillers have emerged as a popular non-surgical solution for facial rejuvenation and enhancement. Apart from botulinum toxin injections, they are the most common non-surgical procedure performed in the US. Line-field optical coherence tomography (LC-OCT; deepLive system Damae Medical, France) represents one of the most recent developments in non-invasive skin imaging technologies.

A Cross-Sectional Evaluation of the Virtual Outpatient Management of People With Mpox.

Background: To report on the implementation and outcomes of a virtual ward established for the management of mpox during the 2022 outbreak, we conducted a 2-center, observational, cross-sectional study over a 3-month period.

Methods: All patients aged ≥17 years with laboratory polymerase chain reaction-confirmed monkeypox virus managed between 14 May and 15 August 2022, at the Hospital for Tropical Diseases at University College London Hospitals National Health Service (NHS) Foundation Trust and sexual health services at Central North and West London NHS Foundation Trust, were included. Main outcomes included the proportion of patients managed exclusively on the virtual ward, proportion of patients requiring inpatient admission, proportion of patients with human immunodeficiency virus, and duration of lesion reepithelialization.

Impact of 5 waves of COVID-19 on pediatric ophthalmology.

Objective: To characterize the impact of multiple waves of COVID-19 on pediatric ophthalmology at a tertiary care hospital.

Methods: Medical records were reviewed from pediatric patients seen for ophthalmic emergencies at the Montreal Children's Hospital (Montreal, Canada) from 5 COVID-19 periods: March 13 to May 31, 2020; September 20, 2020, to February 21, 2021; March 21 to May 31, 2021; August 17 to November 5, 2021; and December 19, 2021, to January 25, 2022, as well as 2 pre-COVID time periods: March 13 to May 31, in 2018 and 2019).

Results: There was a significant reduction in ophthalmic consultations when comparing pre-COVID to all 5 COVID waves (p < 0.

Targeting Neoantigens in Cancer: Possibilities and Opportunities in Breast Cancer.

As one of the most prevalent forms of cancer worldwide, breast cancer has garnered significant attention within the clinical research setting. While traditional treatment employs a multidisciplinary approach including a variety of therapies such as chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and even surgery, researchers have since directed their attention to the budding role of neoantigens. Neoantigens are defined as tumor-specific antigens that result from a multitude of genetic alterations, the most prevalent of which is the single nucleotide variant.
