Article Abstract

Background: Generative AI, particularly large language models (LLMs), holds great potential for improving patient care and operational efficiency in healthcare. However, the use of LLMs is complicated by regulatory concerns around data security and patient privacy. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a secure infrastructure that allows researchers to safely leverage LLMs in healthcare while ensuring HIPAA compliance and promoting equitable AI.

Materials And Methods: We implemented a private Azure OpenAI Studio deployment with secure API-enabled endpoints for researchers. Two use cases were explored, detecting falls from electronic health records (EHR) notes and evaluating bias in mental health prediction using fairness-aware prompts.

Results: The framework provided secure, HIPAA-compliant API access to LLMs, allowing researchers to handle sensitive data safely. Both use cases highlighted the secure infrastructure's capacity to protect sensitive patient data while supporting innovation.

Discussion And Conclusion: This centralized platform presents a scalable, secure, and HIPAA-compliant solution for healthcare institutions aiming to integrate LLMs into clinical research.

The increasing dependence on cloud computing as a cornerstone of modern technological infrastructures has introduced significant challenges in resource management. Traditional load-balancing techniques often prove inadequate in addressing cloud environments' dynamic and complex nature, resulting in suboptimal resource utilization and heightened operational costs. This paper presents a novel smart load-balancing strategy incorporating advanced techniques to mitigate these limitations.

Climate change is expected to pose significant threats to public health, particularly vector-borne diseases. Despite dramatic recent increases in dengue that many anecdotally connect with climate change, the effect of anthropogenic climate change on dengue remains poorly quantified. To assess this link, we assembled local-level data on dengue across 21 countries in Asia and the Americas.

IntroductionOxaliplatin is a platinum-based drug widely used for treating colorectal cancer. However, its use is often complicated by hypersensitivity reactions and other adverse effects, including peripheral neuropathy and myelosuppression. We evaluated the efficacy of prophylactic hydrocortisone administration in preventing hypersensitivity reactions during oxaliplatin therapy in patients with colorectal cancer.

High-performance computing (HPC) is widely used in higher education for modeling, simulation, and AI applications. A critical piece of infrastructure with which to secure funding, attract and retain faculty, and teach students, supercomputers come with high capital and operating costs that must be considered against other competing priorities. This study applies the concepts of the production function model from economics with two thrusts: (1) to evaluate if previous research on building a model for quantifying the value of investment in research computing is generalizable to a wider set of universities, and (2) to define a model with which to capacity plan HPC investment, based on institutional production-inverting the production function.

The launch of ChatGPT in November 2022 accelerated discussions and research into whether base large language models (LLMs) could increase the efficiency of qualitative analysis phases or even replace qualitative researchers. Reflexive thematic analysis (RTA) is a commonly used method for qualitative text analysis that emphasizes the researcher's subjectivity and reflexivity to enable a situated, in-depth understanding of knowledge generation. Researchers appear optimistic about the potential of LLMs in qualitative research; however, questions remain about whether base models can meaningfully contribute to the interpretation and abstraction of a dataset.
