Introduction: Workplace violence (WPV) is a significant concern in healthcare settings and indicates the need for accurate reporting to plan and implement effective interventions. This article presents the results of a quality improvement (QI) initiative implemented at a large academic health sciences center to improve the reporting of WPV events.
Methods: The Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) model was adopted to optimize the electronic reporting process, reduce inaccuracies of WPV reporting, and ensure appropriate follow-up from leadership and the Workplace Health, Safety, and Wellness (WHSW) team.

Background: Health authorities worldwide have invested in digital technologies to establish robust information exchange systems for improving the safety and efficiency of medication management. Nevertheless, inaccurate medication lists and information gaps are common, particularly during care transitions, leading to avoidable harm, inefficiencies, and increased costs. Besides fragmented health care processes, the inconsistent incorporation of patient-driven changes contributes to these problems.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy and readability of the answers generated by large language model (LLM)-chatbots to common patient questions about low back pain (LBP).
Methods: This cross-sectional study analysed responses to 30 LBP-related questions, covering self-management, risk factors and treatment. The questions were developed by experienced clinicians and researchers and were piloted with a group of consumer representatives with lived experience of LBP.

Objective: This study constructed a new conditional generative adversarial network (CGAN) model to predict changes in lateral appearance following orthodontic treatment.
Methods: Lateral cephalometric radiographs of adult patients were obtained before (T1) and after (T2) orthodontic treatment. The expanded dataset was divided into training, validation, and test sets by random sampling in a ratio of 8:1:1.

The low durability of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV), between 10-15 years, is associated with the development of leaflets flutter. Despite increasing calcification and structural damage of the BHV, leaflets flutter is an understudied condition. Therefore, the objective of this study is compare the oscillation characteristics of BHV leaflets obtained by the finite element method (FEM) technique and by the fluid-structural interaction (FSI) technique.
