Unlabelled: The Protein Information Resource (PIR) has greatly expanded its Web site and developed a set of interactive search and analysis tools to facilitate the analysis, annotation, and functional identification of proteins. New search engines have been implemented to combine sequence similarity search results with database annotation information. The new PIR search systems have proved very useful in providing enriched functional annotation of protein sequences, determining protein superfamily-domain relationships, and detecting annotation errors in genomic database archives.

Incidence and Predictors of Cardiac Complications Following Elective Versus Urgent Non-cardiac Surgeries.
Cureus
December 2024
College of Nursing and Health Sciences, Jazan University, Jazan, SAU.
Cardiac complications following non-cardiac surgeries are a significant cause of perioperative morbidity and mortality. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the incidence and predictors of cardiac complications in patients undergoing elective and urgent non-cardiac surgeries. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for studies published between 2010 and 2024.

The vast interconnection of resource-constrained devices and the immense amount of data exchange in the Internet of Things (IoT) environment resulted in the resurgence of various security threats. This resource-constrained environment of IoT makes data security a very challenging task. Recent trends in integrating lightweight cryptographic algorithms have significantly improved data security in the IoT without affecting performance.

Department of Public Health, Erasmus MC, Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Background: Injury prevalence is a metric which can be used to understand healthcare utilisation and prioritise injuries based on the magnitude of the injury rate. Given the ageing population in high-income countries and subsequently ageing of the injured population, the probability of long-term or permanent consequences of injuries is also likely to increase. By understanding past trends and exploiting patterns of prevalence injury rates (PIRs), future PIRs can be predicted.

Background: The genus is reviewed with seven species found in Pakistan: (Mulsant, 1866), Kapur, 1973, Dobzhansky, 1926, Fabricius, 1781, Linnaeus, 1758, Faldermann, 1835 and Linnaeus, 1758. Information on prey, host plants, distribution and an identification key for species in Pakistan is provided. Additionally, newly-sequenced partial COI (cytochrome-c-oxidase subunit I) for and were used to determine their phylogenetic positions within the genus .

Article Synopsis
- This study assessed how well Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Gemini answered melanoma-related patient questions compared to established Dutch patient information resources (PIRs).
- ChatGPT-3.5 had the highest accuracy, while Gemini excelled in completeness, personalization, and readability; however, the best LLMs still lagged behind PIRs in accuracy overall.
- Despite LLMs showing promise for personalized responses, the study highlights the need for improvement in their accuracy and reproducibility before they can fully replace traditional PIRs.
