Background: The effect of background noise on auscultation accuracy for different lung sound classes under standardised conditions, especially at lower to medium levels, remains largely unexplored. This article aims to evaluate the impact of three levels of Gaussian white noise (GWN) on the ability to identify three classes of lung sounds.
Methods And Materials: A pre-post pilot study assessing the impact of GWN on a group of students' ability to identify lung sounds was conducted.

Purpose: Recent advances in artificial intelligence provide opportunities to capture and represent complex features of human language in a more automated manner, offering potential means of improving the efficiency of language assessment. This review article presents computerized approaches for the analysis of narrative language and identification of language disorders in children.
Method: We first describe the current barriers to clinicians' use of language sample analysis, narrative language sampling approaches, and the data processing stages that precede analysis.

Purpose: Less than 5% of GI stromal tumors (GISTs) are driven by the loss of the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) complex, resulting in a pervasive DNA hypermethylation pattern that leads to unique clinical features. Advanced SDH-deficient GISTs are usually treated with the same therapies targeting KIT and PDGFRA receptors as those used in metastatic GIST. However, these treatments display less activity in the absence of alternative therapeutic options.
