Utility maximization is a key element of a number of theoretical approaches to explaining human behavior. Among these approaches are rational analysis, ideal observer theory, and signal detection theory. While some examples of these approaches define the utility maximization problem with little reference to the bounds imposed by the organism, others start with, and emphasize approaches in which bounds imposed by the information processing architecture are considered as an explicit part of the utility maximization problem. These latter approaches are the topic of this issue of the journal.

Patient overcrowding in emergency departments (ED) impact quality of care by increasing length of stay which often leads to delayed patient dispositions. Emergency Department Observation Units (EDOUs) are protocol driven units staffed by ED providers that can alleviate overcrowding concerns and accommodate patients that require further diagnostics for a final disposition. Virtual rounding on EDOUs can be leveraged to maximize provider shortages and increase access to quality care.

Cancer immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment by harnessing the body's immune system to recognize and attack tumors. Over the past 25 years, the use of blocking antibodies has fundamentally transformed the landscape of cancer therapy. However, despite extensive research, agonist antibodies targeting costimulatory receptors such as ICOS, GITR, OX40, CD27, and 4-1BB have consistently underperformed in clinical trials over the past 15 years, failing to meet the anticipated success.

Accurate preoperative mapping is crucial for maximizing tumor removal while minimizing damage to critical brain functions during brain tumor surgery. Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS), magnetoencephalography (MEG), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are established methods for assessing motor and language function. Following PRISMA guidelines, this systematic review analyzes the reliability, clinical utility, and accessibility of these techniques.

Urban public health resilience has become a critical focus in the transition to high-quality development, especially in addressing increasing public health challenges. This study explores the role of artificial intelligence (AI) technology in enhancing urban public health resilience across 284 Chinese cities from 2011 to 2021. Using a comprehensive index based on resistance, recovery, and innovation dimensions, the study quantifies AI technology levels through patent applications and authorizations, further disaggregating these into invention, utility model, and design patents.
