BACKGROUND: The choroid plexus (CP) is closely linked to inflammation in multiple sclerosis (MS). While the CP volume is enlarged in MS compared with healthy controls (HC), no such changes are observed in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD...
OBJECTIVE: Smartphone applications (apps) show promise as an effective and scalable intervention modality for disordered eating, yet responsiveness varies considerably. The ability to predict user responses to app-based interventions is currently lim...
BACKGROUND: The integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) into nursing education presents a novel approach to enhancing critical thinking skills. This study evaluated the effectiveness of LLM-assisted Problem-Based Learning (PBL) compared to tradit...
BACKGROUND: Patients presenting to emergency departments (EDs) for mental health problems have an elevated short-term risk of repeat ED visits, subsequent hospitalization, and suicide.
Suicide causes over 700,000 deaths annually worldwide. Mental disorders are closely linked to suicidal ideation, but predicting suicide remains complex due to the multifaceted nature of contributing factors. Traditional assessment tools often fail to...

BACKGROUND: It is unclear, whether photoplethysmography (PPG) waveforms from wearable devices can differentiate between supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias. We assessed, whether a neural network-based classifier can distinguish the origin of...
This study aimed to develop an X-ray radiomics model for predicting collapse of early-stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). A total of 87 patients (111 hips; training set: nā=ā67, test set: nā=ā44) with non-traumatic ONFH at Association Res...
