Objectives: Evaluating methods for building data frameworks for application of AI in large scale datasets for women's health studies.
Methods: We created methods for transforming raw data to a data framework for applying machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP) techniques for predicting falls and fractures.
Results: Prediction of falls was higher in women compared to men. Information extracted from radiology reports was converted to a matrix for applying machine learning. For fractures, by applying specialized algorithms, we extracted snippets from dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans for meaningful terms usable for predicting fracture risk.
Discussion: Life cycle of data from raw to analytic form includes data governance, cleaning, management, and analysis. For applying AI, data must be prepared optimally to reduce algorithmic bias.
Conclusion: Algorithmic bias is harmful for research using AI methods. Building AI ready data frameworks that improve efficiency can be especially valuable for women's health.

Background: Following SARS-CoV-2 infection, ~10-35% of COVID-19 patients experience long COVID (LC), in which debilitating symptoms persist for at least three months. Elucidating biologic underpinnings of LC could identify therapeutic opportunities.
Methods: We utilized machine learning methods on biologic analytes provided over 12-months after hospital discharge from >500 COVID-19 patients in the IMPACC cohort to identify a multi-omics "recovery factor", trained on patient-reported physical function survey scores.

Gynecological cancer, encompassing cancers such as endometrial and cervical cancer, is a growing concern worldwide, with a rising incidence and significant impact on women's health. Pterostilbene (PT), a natural compound, has shown promising therapeutic potential in gynecological cancer treatment. This review aims to summarize the current state of knowledge on PT's effects in gynecological cancer, focusing on its molecular mechanisms, preclinical studies, and clinical trials.

Introduction: Brachytherapy has been used for the multimodal treatment of pediatric bladder-prostate rhabdomyosarcoma in the last two decades. The aim of this systematic review is to gather the current evidence about this innovative technique with a special focus on long-term outcomes.
Methods: According to PRISMA criteria, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for papers published between 2000 and 2022.

Background: The increasing rate of cesarean section births is a global concern, including in Tanzania, where cesarean section births account for 11% of live births. Following a cesarean section, mothers are commonly discharged early to reduce ward congestion; as a result, they are required to receive care at home. However, evidence indicates that mothers receive limited or no information on post-cesarean section home care, which increases the risk of complications.
