AI Article Synopsis

  • The study analyzed treatment methods for adrenal metastases at one institution over 10 years, comparing surgery and SABR (Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy).
  • Since 2016, the use of SABR has increased significantly, doubling the number of patients treated this way, while surgery rates remained stable.
  • Both SABR and surgery showed low levels of immediate side effects and comparable survival outcomes for patients.

Article Abstract

We studied treatment patterns for adrenal metastases using surgery or SABR at a single institution during a 10-year period. The number of patients undergoing SABR doubled since 2016, without a change in numbers undergoing surgery. Both treatments resulted in low rates of acute toxicity and similar survivals.

Background: The escalating global scarcity of skilled health care professionals is a critical concern, further exacerbated by rising stress levels and clinician burnout rates. Artificial intelligence (AI) has surfaced as a potential resource to alleviate these challenges. Nevertheless, it is not taken for granted that AI will inevitably augment human performance, as ill-designed systems may inadvertently impose new burdens on health care workers, and implementation may be challenging.

To ensure that an eHealth technology fits with its intended users, other stakeholders, and the context within which it will be used, thorough development, implementation, and evaluation processes are necessary. The CeHRes (Centre for eHealth and Wellbeing Research) Roadmap is a framework that can help shape these processes. While it has been successfully used in research and practice, new developments and insights have arisen since the Roadmap's first publication in 2011, not only within the domain of eHealth but also within the different disciplines in which the Roadmap is grounded.

Stress and Cardiovascular Disease: The Role of Affective Traits and Mental Disorders.

Annu Rev Clin Psychol

January 2025

Department of Psychology, Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA; email:

Personality traits involving negative affect, as well as mental disorders including depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder, are cardiovascular risk factors. However, which of these confer risk independently is uncertain, and the implications of their overlap, combinations, and interactions are poorly understood. Potential explanatory mechanisms are being characterized with increasing detail and sophistication.
