Abstract Large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT have emerged potential game-changers in nursing, aiding patient education, diagnostic assistance, treatment recommendations, and administrative task efficiency. While these advancements signal promising strides healthcare, integrated LLMs are not without challenges, particularly artificial intelligence hallucination data privacy concerns. Methodologies prompt engineering, temperature adjustments, model fine-tuning, local deployment...
Little is known about cancer information needs and seeking patterns in the rapidly growing Asian American population. The purpose of this study to characterize behaviors preferences Americans examine their cancer-related knowledge risk perceptions. Data from nationally representative Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS) database were analyzed compare non-Hispanic Asians Whites. had lower awareness Institutes Cancer Society, less likely think that not smoking or quitting would...
Abstract Starch digestion is mostly investigated with in vitro techniques, and time‐course measurements are common. These yield digestograms that modeled by theoretical, semitheoretical, empirical kinetic equations, many of which reviewed here. The Duggleby model has Michaelis–Menten functions, its dependent variable on both sides the equation no apparent parameter for maximum digestible starch ( D ∞ ). Gaouar Peleg models equivalent. They predict initial 0 ) , an average rate, but they can...
Nanocovax is a recombinant severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 subunit vaccine composed of full-length prefusion stabilized SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoproteins (S-2P) and aluminium hydroxide adjuvant.We conducted dose-escalation, open label trial (phase 1) randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled 2) to evaluate the safety immunogenicity (in 25 mcg, 50 75 mcg doses, adjuvanted (0·5 mg/dose) in 2-dose regime, 28 days apart (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT04683484). In phase 1, 60...
In early 2020, institutions of higher education (IHEs) began responding to SARS-CoV-2, a novel coronavirus that would later come be known as COVID-19 or simply "COVID." This milestone offers chance reflect on the past 5 years and better prepare for such crises in future. COVID was not first public health emergency college professionals, it almost certainly will last. commentary discusses unique challenges experiences response at IHEs presents considerations leaders advance next local,...
Helping cancer survivors to transition from active treatment long-term survivorship requires coordinated efforts by both oncologists and primary care physicians (PCPs). This study aims evaluate survivors' perspectives on PCP-delivered care. We conducted an Internet-based cross-sectional survey of via www.OncoLink.org . Regression analyses were used identify factors associated with perception The 352 respondents rated overall as 60 out 100 (SD = 23). areas most strongly endorsed general (62...
The reported study illustrates a methodology for compiling training datasets to fine-tune Large Language Models (LLMs) healthcare information in Vietnamese, low-resource language. objective is bridge the gap medical accessibility and enhance communication developing countries by adapting LLMs specific linguistic nuances domain needs. involves selecting base model, domain-specific dataset, fine-tuning model with this dataset. Three open-source models were selected. comprising approximately...
Information seeking and scanning refers to active pursuit of information passive exposure, respectively. Cancer is the leading cause mortality for Asian Americans, yet little known about their cancer seeking/scanning behaviors (SSB). We aimed evaluate SSB among older limited English proficient (LEP) Vietnamese immigrants, compared with Whites/African Americans. One hundred four semistructured interviews breast/prostate/colon (ages 50–70) were conducted in Vietnamese, transcribed, coded...
The objective of this study was to determine the knowledge and attitudes toward testicular cancer (TC) self-exam (TSE) among adolescent males. To assess male perspectives, a cross-sectional conducted in convenience sample 203 high school students. Among participants, 139 (68.5%) correctly identified age group when TC most commonly occurs, 74 (36.5%) believed that TSE should be performed monthly. In logistic regression model, students who have never heard were more likely report intention...
Introduction: The exclusive breastfeeding rate for six months in the Northeast region of Thailand has recently significantly decreased, contrast to all other regions Thailand. Facebook is widely used worldwide enhance knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours that support breastfeeding. This study aims assess effectiveness a programme husbands' during COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: We employed quasi-experimental design conducted from September 2020 November 2021. Data were collected two tertiary...
Increased blood-brain barrier permeability is believed to be associated with complications following acute ischemic stroke and infarct expansion. Measurement of requires a delayed image acquisition methodology, which prolongs examination time, increasing the likelihood movement artefacts radiation dose. Existing quantitative methods overestimate when early phase CT perfusion data are used. The purpose this study develop method that yields correct value using first-pass data.We acquired 43...
<h3>Importance</h3> Optimal quarantine length for COVID-19 infection is unclear, in part owing to limited empirical data. <h3>Objective</h3> To assess postquarantine transmission risk various lengths and potential associations between strictness risk. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> Retrospective cohort study 4 US universities from September 2020 February 2021, including 3641 university students staff who were identified as close contacts individuals tested positive SARS-CoV-2...
Background: Community-based participatory research (CBPR) approaches are increasingly used in behavioral studies but also may allow public health and services researchers to study determinants of hard-to-reach communities for whom existing data missing. Objectives: We describe our experience with a CBPR project diverse limited English proficient minorities. Methods: The process included relationship building, recognition community needs, resource investment by academic partners, shared...
Asymptomatic surveillance testing together with COVID-19-related research can lead to positive SARS-CoV-2 tests resulting not from true infections, but non-infectious, non-hazardous by-products of (amplicons). Amplicons be widespread and persistent in lab environments difficult distinguish for infections. We discuss prevention mitigation strategies.
Purpose Vietnam is experiencing high rates of young adult migration from rural hometowns to urban cities in search new economic and social opportunities. However, limited internal research has examined the well-being this population once they are destinations, as well their interactions with lifestyles cities. Thus, purpose paper explore transition Vietnamese migrants into city life. Design/methodology/approach In-depth interviews were conducted among ten female six male temporary unmarried...
