Purpose: Precise electrode placement is crucial for the success of sacral neuromodulation (SNM). The aim of this study was to explore a more accurate and convenient method for positioning punctures during the first stage of SNM.
Methods: This retrospective study compared preoperative baseline values, intraoperative indicators, postoperative scores, and other clinical data from 130 patients who underwent SNM electrode implantation at our department between 2018 and 2023.

Background And Aims: Post-stroke dysphagia is highly prevalent and causes complication. While video games have demonstrated potential to increase patient engagement in rehabilitation, their efficacy in stroke patients with dysphagia remains unclear. This aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of the artificial intelligence-based video-game (AI-VG) intervention in improving swallowing function among stroke patients with dysphagia.

The long-term presence of antibiotics in the aquatic environment will affect ecology and human health. Techniques for determining antibiotics are often time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly, and it is desirable to seek new methods to achieve rapid prediction of antibiotics. Many scholars have shown the effectiveness of machine learning in water quality prediction, however, its effectiveness in predicting antibiotic concentrations in the aquatic environment remains inconclusive.
