Artificial intelligence develops rapidly and health is one of the areas where new technologies in this field are most promising. The use of artificial intelligence can modify the way health care and self-care are provided, besides influencing the organization of health systems. Therefore, the regulation of artificial intelligence in healthcare is an emerging and essential topic. Specific laws and regulations are being developed around the world. In Brazil, the starting point of this regulation is the Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais (LGPD - General Personal Data Protection Law), which recognizes the right to explanation and review of automated decisions. Discussing the scope of this right is needed, considering the necessary instrumentalization of transparency in the use of artificial intelligence for health and the currently existing limits, such as the black-box system inherent to algorithms and the trade-off between explainability and accuracy of automated systems.

Incidence of fall-from-height injuries and predictive factors for severity.

J Osteopath Med

January 2025

McAllen Department of Trauma, South Texas Health System, McAllen, TX, USA.

Context: The injuries caused by falls-from-height (FFH) are a significant public health concern. FFH is one of the most common causes of polytrauma. The injuries persist to be significant adverse events and a challenge regarding injury severity assessment to identify patients at high risk upon admission.

Detection of biomarkers of breast cancer incurs additional costs and tissue burden. We propose a deep learning-based algorithm (BBMIL) to predict classical biomarkers, immunotherapy-associated gene signatures, and prognosis-associated subtypes directly from hematoxylin and eosin stained histopathology images. BBMIL showed the best performance among comparative algorithms on the prediction of classical biomarkers, immunotherapy related gene signatures, and subtypes.

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are intrinsic components of the tumor microenvironment that promote cancer progression and metastasis. Through an unbiased integrated analysis of gastric tumor grade and stage, we identified a subset of proangiogenic CAFs characterized by high podoplanin (PDPN) expression, which are significantly enriched in metastatic lesions and secrete chemokine (CC-motif) ligand 2 (CCL2). Mechanistically, PDPN(+) CAFs enhance angiogenesis by activating the AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Study Question: How accurately can artificial intelligence (AI) models predict sperm retrieval in non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) patients undergoing micro-testicular sperm extraction (m-TESE) surgery?

Summary Answer: AI predictive models hold significant promise in predicting successful sperm retrieval in NOA patients undergoing m-TESE, although limitations regarding variability of study designs, small sample sizes, and a lack of validation studies restrict the overall generalizability of studies in this area.

What Is Known Already: Previous studies have explored various predictors of successful sperm retrieval in m-TESE, including clinical and hormonal factors. However, no consistent predictive model has yet been established.

Background: Infant alertness and neurologic changes can reflect life-threatening pathology but are assessed by physical exam, which can be intermittent and subjective. Reliable, continuous methods are needed. We hypothesized that our computer vision method to track movement, pose artificial intelligence (AI), could predict neurologic changes in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
