Article Abstract
Background: Simulation-based medical education (SBME) is a critical training tool in healthcare, shaping learners' skills, professional identities, and inclusivity. Leadership demographics in SBME, including age, gender, race/ethnicity, and medical specialties, influence program design and learner outcomes. Artificial intelligence (AI) platforms increasingly generate demographic data, but their biases may perpetuate inequities in representation. This study evaluated the demographic profiles of simulation instructors and heads of simulation labs generated by three AI platforms-ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude-across nine global locations.
Methods: A global cross-sectional study was conducted over 5 days (November 2024). Standardized English prompts were used to generate demographic profiles of simulation instructors and heads of simulation labs from ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. Outputs included age, gender, race/ethnicity, and medical specialty data for 2014 instructors and 1880 lab heads. Statistical analyses included ANOVA for continuous variables and chi-square tests for categorical data, with Bonferroni corrections for multiple comparisons: P significant < 0.05.
Results: Significant demographic differences were observed among AI platforms. Claude profiles depicted older heads of simulation labs (mean: 57 years) compared to instructors (mean: 41 years), while ChatGPT and Gemini showed smaller age gaps. Gender representation varied, with ChatGPT and Gemini generating balanced profiles, while Claude showed a male predominance (63.5%) among lab heads. ChatGPT and Gemini outputs reflected greater racial diversity, with up to 24.4% Black and 20.6% Hispanic/Latin representation, while Claude predominantly featured White profiles (47.8%). Specialty preferences also differed, with Claude favoring anesthesiology and surgery, whereas ChatGPT and Gemini offered broader interdisciplinary representation.
Conclusions: AI-generated demographic profiles of SBME leadership reveal biases that may reinforce inequities in healthcare education. ChatGPT and Gemini demonstrated broader diversity in age, gender, and race, while Claude skewed towards older, White, and male profiles, particularly for leadership roles. Addressing these biases through ethical AI development, enhanced AI literacy, and promoting diverse leadership in SBME are essential to fostering equitable and inclusive training environments.
Trial Registration: Not applicable. This study exclusively used AI-generated synthetic data.

Background: TikTok became an increasingly popular platform for mental health discussions during a major global stressor (COVID-19 pandemic). On TikTok, content assumed to promote user engagement is delivered in a hyperindividually curated manner through a proprietary algorithm. Mental health providers have raised concerns about TikTok's potential role in promoting inaccurate self-diagnoses, pathologizing normal behaviors, and fostering new-onset symptoms after exposure to illness-related content, such as tic-like movements linked to conversion or factitious disorders.

Background: Emerging evidence suggests a link between the oral microbiome and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a neurodevelopmental condition characterised by social and behavioural impairments. The vast microbial reservoirs in the gut complement those of the oral cavity, suggesting a potential oral-gut-brain axis that may influence ASD and perhaps other neurological diseases, such as Parkinson's syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. For the first time, this systematic review synthesises the current knowledge of oral microbiome composition, diversity, and functionality in ASD and its potential diagnostic and therapeutic implications.

Background: Electronic health records (EHRs) are a cornerstone of modern health care delivery, but their current configuration often fragments information across systems, impeding timely and effective clinical decision-making. In gynecological oncology, where care involves complex, multidisciplinary coordination, these limitations can significantly impact the quality and efficiency of patient management. Few studies have examined how EHR systems support clinical decision-making from the perspective of end users.

Background: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy may be associated with an increased risk of adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes for the child, though no recent comprehensive meta-analyses exist. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis examining the association between hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and child neurodevelopmental disabilities, intelligence, and educational outcomes.
Methods And Findings: A search was conducted of MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, and PsycINFO databases from inception until 18 September 2024.
