Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy and validity of patient explanations about nuclear medicine examinations generated in Japanese using ChatGPT- 3.5 and ChatGPT- 4.
Methods: ChatGPT was used to generate Japanese language explanations for seven single-photon emission computed tomography examinations (bone scintigraphy, brain perfusion imaging, myocardial perfusion imaging, dopamine transporter scintigraphy [DAT scintigraphy], sentinel lymph node scintigraphy, lung perfusion scintigraphy, and renal function scintigraphy) and F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography. Nineteen board-certified nuclear medicine technologists evaluated the accuracy and validity of the responses using a 5-point scale.
Results: ChatGPT- 4 demonstrated significantly higher accuracy and validity than ChatGPT- 3.5, with 77.9% of responses rated as above average or excellent for accuracy, in comparison to 36.3% for ChatGPT- 3.5. For validity, 73.1% of ChatGPT- 4's responses were rated as above average or excellent, in comparison to 19.6% for ChatGPT- 3.5. ChatGPT- 4 outperformed ChatGPT- 3.5 in all examinations, with notable improvements in bone scintigraphy, lung perfusion scintigraphy, and DAT scintigraphy.
Conclusion: These findings suggest that ChatGPT- 4 can be a valuable tool for providing patient explanations of nuclear medicine examinations. However, its application still requires expert supervision, and further research is needed to address potential risks and security concerns.

Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) is a major type of breast cancer. The utilization of inhibitors targeting histone methyltransferases introduces novel therapeutic avenues for the treatment of cancer. Immunohistochemistry, Western blot, and reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction experiments were applied to assess the levels of EHMT2 in IDC and adjacent tissues.

Introduction: Dysfunction of the glymphatic system is thought to lead to build up of toxic proteins including β-amyloid and α-synuclein, and thus may be involved in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The Diffusion Tensor Image Analysis Along the Perivascular Space (DTI-ALPS) index has been proposed as a marker of glymphatic function.
Aims: To investigate DTI-ALPS in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia, and determine its relationship with cognitive decline, and biomarkers of neurodegeneration.

Rationale: In intensive care unit (ICU) patients lower oxygenation targets may impair long-term cognitive function, while higher targets may impair long-term pulmonary function.
Objectives: To assess the effects of a partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO) target of 60 vs 90 mmHg on one-year cognitive and pulmonary functions in ICU survivors of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure.
Methods: 3654 patients were randomized in the Handling Oxygenation Targets in the ICU and the Handling Oxygenation Targets in COVID-19 trials: 1916 (52.

Background: Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) criteria for in vivo diagnosis of unperturbed basal cell carcinoma (BCC) lesions have been validated and studies have reported high diagnostic sensitivity. However, a paucity of data remains regarding preservation or changes in RCM features after biopsy or treatment.
Objective: Prospectively image biopsy proven superficial BCC (sBCC) with RCM at baseline and 12 weeks post-treatment to determine clearance and identify any associated RCM features.
