AI-enabled digital wound monitoring after cardiac surgery: a randomised controlled feasibility, safety, and acceptability trial.

The Journal of hospital infection May 4, 2026

BACKGROUND: Surgical site infection after cardiac surgery is a common cause of morbidity and unplanned healthcare use, with most infections developing after hospital discharge. Remote wound monitoring using smartphone technology and artificial intell... read more

Artificial intelligence for detection of root canal fillings and evaluation of obturation quality on dental radiographs: A systematic review.

Journal of dentistry May 4, 2026

OBJECTIVES: To systematically evaluate evidence on artificial intelligence (AI) for root canal filling (RCF) detection and radiographic assessment of obturation quality. DATA: Eligible studies assessed AI-based models for RCF detection and/or obturat... read more

Scaling, performance, and quality: Machine-Learning evidence for how WWTP and compost processes shape microplastics.

Environmental research May 4, 2026

Composting is a key pathway for microplastics (MPs) to enter soils via organic waste. Based on 635 records from 99 studies, MP abundance was higher in sludge-based and mixed composts than in plant-derived materials. Meta-analysis of wastewater treatm... read more

Anatomical deformation prediction using artificial intelligence for fusion imaging during aortic endovascular procedures.

Journal of vascular surgery cases and innovative techniques May 4, 2026

Placement of an aortic stent graft induces anatomical deformations, particularly at the iliac level, because of the introduction of rigid devices. Anticipating these changes may improve the accuracy of fusion guidance during endovascular procedures. ... read more

Overcoming measurement challenges in clinical practice: a deep learning-based approach to monocular surface area measurement.

Skin health and disease May 4, 2026

BACKGROUND: Precise area measurement of body surfaces is essential in clinical trials and clinical practice, particularly for the clinician, to monitor lesion size, assess skin condition severity and determine precise treatment dosage. The inherent d... read more

AI-driven integration of genomic and exposome data for cancer risk: the combined risk score (CRS).

Human genomics May 4, 2026

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) have emerged as important tools for quantifying inherited susceptibility to cancer, and are increasingly combined with environmental and lifestyle factors into composite risk scores (CRS). In this context, environmental in... read more

Surgical and hormonal gender-affirming care: cross-domain determinants and artificial intelligence-enabled expansion.

International journal for equity in health May 4, 2026

Gender-affirming surgery (GAS) and gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) and are evidence-based components of care that support the health and well-being of transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) individuals, with extensive evidence linking them to r... read more

Utilizing generative artificial intelligence to create simulated patient for history taking in gynecology.

BMC medical education May 4, 2026

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a generative artificial intelligence based simulated patient model in improving gynecological history-taking skills among medical students, compared with traditional clinical teaching me... read more

Framework for evaluating explainable AI in antimicrobial drug discovery.

Journal of cheminformatics May 4, 2026

Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) methods for molecular property prediction lack standardized evaluation criteria, preventing widespread deployment in drug development and hit optimisation, where proper understanding of structure-activity rel... read more

Microbial succession from nursery to vineyard highlights the role of beneficial and pathogenic microbes in young vineyard yield.

Environmental microbiome May 4, 2026

BACKGROUND: The grapevine microbiome plays a central role in shaping vineyard performance, yet the influence of nursery inherited microbes on vineyard establishment and early productivity remains poorly understood. Our goals were to study the endosph... read more
