AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The use of telemedicine and telehealth services has grown exponentially over the past decade and has become increasingly relevant and necessary during the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. There remains ample opportunity to electronically connect cardiothoracic surgeons with their patients during both preoperative and postoperative visits. In this review, we examine the various implementations of telemedicine within thoracic surgery and explore future applications in this quickly developing field.

Virtual patients using large language models: Scalable, contextualized simulation of clinician-patient dialog with feedback.
J Med Internet Res
January 2025
Division of General Internal Medicine, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science, 200 First St SW, Rochester, US.
Background: Virtual patients (VPs) are computer screen-based simulations of patient-clinician encounters. VP use is limited by cost and low scalability.
Objective: Show proof-of-concept that VPs powered by large language models (LLMs) generate authentic dialogs, accurate representations of patient preferences, and personalized feedback on clinical performance; and explore LLMs for rating dialog and feedback quality.
Investigating the moments of "aha" and "hmm" through acoustic analysis of voice and speech in pre-service physics teacher education-A novel method for identifying significant learning moments.
PLoS One
January 2025
Department of Teacher Education, University of Jyväskylä, Jyväskylä, Finland.
The aim of the study was to find whether certain meaningful moments in the learning process are noticeable through features of voice and how acoustic voice analyses can be utilized in learning research. The material consisted of recordings of nine university students as they were completing tasks concerning direct electric circuits as part of their course of teacher education in physics. Prosodic features of voice-fundamental frequency (F0), sound pressure level (SPL), acoustic voice quality measured by LTAS, and pausing-were investigated.

PLoS One

School of Hydraulic Engineering, Zhejiang University of Water Resources and Electric Power, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.
Spillway chutes are critical in dam flood control, particularly in high dams where high water heads and large discharge in narrow canyons amplify the demand for safe discharging. For large unit discharges in spillways, aeration protection is essential to prevent cavitation erosion, but challenges arise from air duct choking in the traditional spillway and nonaerated regions in the stepped spillway. This paper introduces a novel spillway called the pre-aerated stilling basin spillway (PSBS).

Aim: Snakes exhibit remarkable physiological shifts when their large meals induce robust postprandial growth after prolonged fasting. To understand the regulatory mechanisms underlying this rapid metabolic transition, we examined the regulation of protein synthesis in pythons, focusing on processes driving early postprandial tissue remodeling and growth.
Methods: Using the SUnSET method with puromycin labeling, we measured in vivo protein synthesis in fasting and digesting snakes at multiple post-feeding intervals.
First-in-Man Study of a Novel Peripheral Plaque Atherectomy Device.
J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich)
January 2025
Department of Vascular Surgery, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
This first-in-man (FIM) study evaluated the feasibility and safety of a new peripheral plaque atherectomy system in patients with symptomatic lower extremity artery disease (LEAD). Ten patients with symptomatic LEAD (Rutherford class 2-5) were enrolled in a prospective, single-center study from March to April 2024. Patients aged 18-85 years with target lesions showing ≥70% stenosis and reference vessel diameters ≥1.
