IMPORTANCE: The introduction of large language models (LLMs), such as Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 (GPT-4; OpenAI), has generated significant interest in health care, yet studies evaluating their performance in a clinical setting are lacking. Determination of clinical acuity, a measure of a patient's illness severity and level of required medical attention, is one of the foundational elements of medical reasoning in emergency medicine. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether an LLM can accurately assess clinical acuity in the emergency department (ED)...

Composite laminates utilizing autoclave-grade carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) prepreg were manufactured using a polymer nanoporous network (NPN) interlayer that generates capillary pressure in lieu of pressure from an autoclave. The polymer nanofiber NPN film is integrated into the interlaminar region and is shown to eliminate voids in a vacuum-bag-only (VBO) curing process. After a preliminary investigation of the effect of NPN thickness on the interlaminar region and performance, an 8 μm thick polymer NPN was selected for a scaled manufacturing demonstration...

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are lysosomal storage diseases caused by defects in catabolism of glycosaminoglycans. MPS I, II, III and VII are associated with lysosomal accumulation of heparan sulphate and manifest with neurological deterioration. Most of these neurological MPS currently lack effective treatments. Here, we report that, compared to controls, neuraminidase 1 (NEU1) activity is drastically reduced in brain tissues of neurological MPS patients and in mouse models of MPS I, II, IIIA, IIIB and IIIC, but not of other neurological lysosomal disorders not presenting with heparan sulphate storage...

BACKGROUND: Randomized controlled trials found that twice-yearly mass azithromycin administration (MDA) reduces childhood mortality, presumably by reducing infection burden. World Health Organization (WHO) issued conditional guidelines for mass azithromycin administration in high-mortality settings in sub-Saharan Africa given concerns for antibiotic resistance. While prolonged twice-yearly MDA has been shown to increase antibiotic resistance in small randomized controlled trials, the objective of this study was to determine if macrolide and non-macrolide resistance in the gut increases with the duration of azithromycin MDA in a larger setting...

INTRODUCTION: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular disease caused by deletions and/or mutations in the survival of motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene. Risdiplam, the first and only oral SMN2 pre-mRNA splicing modifier, is US Food and Drug Administration-approved for the treatment of pediatric and adult patients with SMA. For patients with SMA, long-term adherence to and persistence with an SMA treatment may be important for achieving maximum clinical benefits. However, real-world evidence on patient adherence to and persistence with risdiplam is limited...

Aflatoxins are highly carcinogenic secondary metabolites of some fungal species, particularly Aspergillus flavus. Aflatoxins often contaminate economically important agricultural commodities, including peanuts, posing a high risk to human and animal health. Due to the narrow genetic base, peanut cultivars demonstrate limited resistance to fungal pathogens. Therefore, numerous wild peanut species with tolerance to Aspergillus have received substantial consideration by scientists as sources of disease resistance...

BACKGROUND: Recent interest in understanding cardiomyocyte cell cycle has been driven by potential therapeutic applications in cardiomyopathy. However, despite recent advances, cardiomyocyte mitosis remains a poorly understood process. For example, it is unclear how sarcomeres are disassembled during mitosis to allow the abscission of daughter cardiomyocytes. METHODS: Here, we use a proteomics screen to identify adducin, an actin capping protein previously not studied in cardiomyocytes, as a regulator of sarcomere disassembly...

Melanosis, the aberrant deposition of melanin pigment in the absence of melanocytes, is very rare in the genitourinary tract. We report a case of a 74-year-old male with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia. Diagnostic cystourethroscopy demonstrated bladder mucosa remarkable for numerous flat, velvety, and brown-black lesions. The patient underwent cystolitholapaxy, transurethral resection of the prostate, and bladder biopsy. Microscopic examination of the bladder biopsy demonstrated urothelium with granular, black pigmentation within the mucosa and histiocytes in the lamina propria; a Fontana Masson stain was positive for melanin...

An elevated diaphragm may be due to eventration or paralysis. Diaphragm elevation is often asymptomatic and found incidentally on imaging. Fluoroscopic testing can be used to differentiate eventration (no paradoxic motion) from paralysis (paradoxic motion). Regardless of etiology, a diaphragm plication is indicated in all symptomatic patients with an elevated diaphragm. Plication can be approached either from a thoracic or abdominal approach, though most thoracic surgeons perform minimally invasive thoracoscopic plication...

Wireless activation of the enteric nervous system (ENS) in freely moving animals with implantable optogenetic devices offers a unique and exciting opportunity to selectively control gastrointestinal (GI) transit in vivo, including the gut-brain axis. Programmed delivery of light to targeted locations in the GI-tract, however, poses many challenges not encountered within the central nervous system (CNS). We report here the development of a fully implantable, battery-free wireless device specifically designed for optogenetic control of the GI-tract, capable of generating sufficient light over large areas to robustly activate the ENS, potently inducing colonic motility ex vivo and increased propulsion in vivo...

The expansion of the world's merchant fleet poses a great threat to the ocean's biodiversity. Collisions between ships and marine megafauna can have population-level consequences for vulnerable species. The Endangered whale shark (Rhincodon typus), shares a circumglobal distribution with this expanding fleet and tracking of movement pathways has shown that large vessel collisions pose a major threat to the species. However, it is not yet known whether they are also at risk within aggregation sites, where up to 400 individuals can gather to feed on seasonal bursts of planktonic productivity...

INTRODUCTION: Diet can affect ammoniagenesis in cirrhosis and hepatic encephalopathy (HE) but the impact of dietary preferences on metabolomics in cirrhosis is unclear. As most Western populations follow meat-based diets, we aimed to determine the impact of substituting a single meat-based meal with an equal protein-containing vegan/vegetarian alternative on ammonia & metabolomics in outpatients with cirrhosis on a meat-based diet. METHODS: Outpatients with cirrhosis with and without prior HE on a stable Western meat-based diet were randomized 1:1:1 into 3 groups...
