Article Abstract

Background: The rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare has raised important patient privacy concerns, particularly regarding AI-based health monitoring devices. As future healthcare professionals, nursing students will play a critical role in adopting and implementing AI-based health monitoring devices.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the level of patient privacy concerns in AI-based health monitoring devices among nursing students and analyze the associated factors.

Methods: A group of 967 nursing students was extracted from the 2023 Chinese Population Psychology and Behavior Survey (PBICR). The multivariate generalized linear model analysis was used to evaluate the associated factors of the level of patient privacy concerns in AI-based health monitoring devices among nursing students.

Result: The mean score of nursing students' level of patient privacy concerns in AI-based health monitoring devices was 69.00 (50.00,88.00) (range 0-100). Family health [Tertile 2: 35 ~ 39 (β = 0.03), Tertile 3: 40 ~ 50 (β = 0.03)], anxiety symptoms [Tertile 2: 2 ~ 7 (β = 0.07), Tertile 3: 8 ~ 21 (β = 0.10)], resilience [Tertile 2: 4 ~ 6 (β = 0.02), Tertile 3: 7 ~ 8 (β = 0.10)], and with no sibling (β=-0.02) were associated with patient privacy concerns in AI-based health monitoring devices among nursing students.

Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that nursing students have certain concerns about AI-based health monitoring devices. The study emphasizes the need for targeted educational programs to mitigate patient privacy concerns and enhance the acceptance of AI-based health monitoring devices in nursing education based on their associated factors.

Clinical Trial Number: Not applicable.

Objectives: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence-assisted segmentation methods in detecting carotid artery calcification (CAC) in panoramic radiographs and to compare the performance of different YOLO models: YOLOv5x-seg, YOLOv8x-seg, and YOLOv11x-seg. Additionally, the study aims to investigate the association between patient gender and the presence of CAC, as part of a broader epidemiological analysis.

Methods: In this study, 30,883 panoramic radiographs were scanned.

Background: Circumcision is a widely practiced procedure with cultural and medical significance. However, certain penile abnormalities-such as hypospadias or webbed penis-may contraindicate the procedure and require specialized care. In low-resource settings, limited access to pediatric urologists often leads to missed or delayed diagnoses.

Introduction: Interpretation and analysis of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans in clinical settings comprise time-consuming visual ratings and complex neuroimage processing that require trained professionals. To combat these challenges, artificial intelligence (AI) techniques can aid clinicians in interpreting brain MRI for accurate diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases but they require extensive validation. Thus, the aim of this study was to validate the use of AI-based AQUA (Neurophet Inc.
