Since 2023, ChatGPT has been leading a research boom in large language models. Research on the applications of large language models in various fields is also being explored. The aim of this study was to explore the use of ChatGPT/GPT-4 for post-surgery patient follow-up after oral surgery. Thirty questions that are the most commonly asked or may be encountered during follow-up and in daily practice were collected to test ChatGPT/GPT-4's responses. A standard prompt was used for each question. The responses given by ChatGPT/GPT-4 were evaluated by three experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeons to assess the suitability of this technology for clinical follow-up, based on the accuracy of medical knowledge and rationality of the advice in ChatGPT/GPT-4's responses. ChatGPT/GPT-4 achieved full marks in terms of both the accuracy of its medical knowledge and the rationality of its recommendations. Additionally, ChatGPT/GPT-4 was able to accurately sense patient emotions and provide them with reassurance. In conclusion, ChatGPT/GPT-4 could be used for patient follow-up after oral surgeries, but this should be done with careful consideration of the technology's current limitations and under the guidance of healthcare professionals.

Patients with intracranial aneurysms (IA) undergoing endovascular treatment face varying risks and benefits when tirofiban is used for thromboprophylaxis during surgery. Currently, there is a lack of high-level evidence summarizing this information. This study aims to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tirofiban during endovascular treatment of IA.

Background: Active surveillance (AS) is the guideline-recommended treatment for low-risk prostate cancer and involves routine provider visits, lab tests, imaging, and prostate biopsies. Despite good uptake, adherence to AS, in terms of receiving recommended follow-up testing and remaining on AS in the absence of evidence of cancer progression, remains challenging.
Objective: We sought to better understand urologist, primary care providers (PCPs), and patient experiences with AS care delivery to identify opportunities to improve adherence.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of preoperative prealbumin levels on long-term survival outcomes after gastrectomy in patients with gastric cancer (GC) dichotomized based on age.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study included consecutive patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for primary stage I-III GC between May 2006 and March 2017. Patients were allocated to groups based on age (≥ 70 or < 70 years) and subgroups based on prealbumin levels (high, ≥ 22 mg/dL; moderate, 15-22 mg/dL; or low, < 15 mg/dL), and multivariate Cox regression was used for survival analyses.
Usefulness of Novel Image-Enhanced Endoscopy for Predicting Maintenance of Clinical Remission in Ulcerative Colitis.

Purpose: The performance of endoscopic evaluation of ulcerative colitis (UC) using conventional scoring, including Mayo endoscopic subscore (MES) and ulcerative colitis endoscopic index of severity (UCEIS), is not satisfactory. Recently, the usefulness of novel image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE) such as texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) and red dichromatic imaging (RDI) has been reported in the endoscopic evaluation of UC. We evaluated the performance of IEEs in UC, particularly focusing on the correlation with MES and UCEIS, and prediction of relapse.

Background: Medical tourism is a rapidly expanding multi-billion-dollar industry. Reduced costs, all-inclusive vacation packages that include cosmetic surgery, globalization, and affordable flight expenses have encouraged patients to seek aesthetic procedures in different countries. Cosmetic medical tourism is associated with high complication rates, such as severe infections, wound dehiscence, pain or discomfort, aesthetic dissatisfaction, and even death.
