With the rising incidence of breast cancer among women, neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is becoming increasingly crucial as a preoperative treatment modality, enabling tumor downstaging and volume reduction. However, its efficacy varies significantly among patients, underscoring the importance of predicting pathological complete response (pCR) following NAC. Early research relied on statistical methods to integrate clinical data for predicting treatment outcomes. With the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), traditional machine learning approaches were subsequently employed for efficacy prediction. Deep learning emerged to dominate this field, and demonstrated the capability to automatically extract imaging features and integrate multimodal data for pCR prediction. This review comprehensively examined the applications and limitations of these three methodologies in predicting breast cancer pCR. Future efforts must prioritize the development of superior predictive models to achieve precise predictions, integrate them into clinical workflows, enhance patient care, and ultimately improve therapeutic outcomes and quality of life.

Artificial intelligence-enhanced brain-computer interfaces (BCI) are expected to significantly improve the performance of traditional BCIs in multiple aspects, including usability, user experience, and user satisfaction, particularly in terms of intelligence. However, such AI-integrated or AI-based BCI systems may introduce new ethical issues. This paper first evaluated the potential of AI technology, especially deep learning, in enhancing the performance of BCI systems, including improving decoding accuracy, information transfer rate, real-time performance, and adaptability. Building on this, it was considered that AI-enhanced BCI systems might introduce new or more severe ethical issues compared to traditional BCI systems. These include the possibility of making users' intentions and behaviors more predictable and manipulable, as well as the increased likelihood of technological abuse. The discussion also addressed measures to mitigate the ethical risks associated with these issues. It is hoped that this paper will promote a deeper understanding and reflection on the ethical risks and corresponding regulations of AI-enhanced BCIs.

Amid the global wave of digital economy, China's medical artificial intelligence applications are rapidly advancing through technological innovation and policy support, while facing multifaceted evaluation and regulatory challenges. The dynamic algorithm evolution undermines the consistency of assessment criteria, multimodal systems lack unified evaluation metrics, and conflicts persist between data sharing and privacy protection. To address these issues, the China National Health Development Research Center has established a value assessment framework for artificial intelligence medical technologies, formulated the country's first technical guideline for clinical evaluation, and validated their practicality through scenario-based pilot studies. Furthermore, this paper proposes introducing a "regulatory sandbox" model to test technical compliance in controlled environments, thereby balancing innovation incentives with risk governance.

Viral infectious diseases, characterized by their intricate nature and wide-ranging diversity, pose substantial challenges in the domain of data management. The vast volume of data generated by these diseases, spanning from the molecular mechanisms within cells to large-scale epidemiological patterns, has surpassed the capabilities of traditional analytical methods. In the era of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data, there is an urgent necessity for the optimization of these analytical methods to more effectively handle and utilize the information. Despite the rapid accumulation of data associated with viral infections, the lack of a comprehensive framework for integrating, selecting, and analyzing these datasets has left numerous researchers uncertain about which data to select, how to access it, and how to utilize it most effectively in their research.This review endeavors to fill these gaps by exploring the multifaceted nature of viral infectious diseases and summarizing relevant data across multiple levels, from the molecular details of pathogens to broad epidemiological trends. The scope extends from the micro-scale to the macro-scale, encompassing pathogens, hosts, and vectors. In addition to data summarization, this review thoroughly investigates various dataset sources. It also traces the historical evolution of data collection in the field of viral infectious diseases, highlighting the progress achieved over time. Simultaneously, it evaluates the current limitations that impede data utilization.Furthermore, we propose strategies to surmount these challenges, focusing on the development and application of advanced computational techniques, AI-driven models, and enhanced data integration practices. By providing a comprehensive synthesis of existing knowledge, this review is designed to guide future research and contribute to more informed approaches in the surveillance, prevention, and control of viral infectious diseases, particularly within the context of the expanding big-data landscape.

Fangcang shelter hospitals are modular, rapidly deployable facilities that play a vital role in pandemic response by providing centralized isolation and basic medical care for large patient populations. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform Fangcang shelter hospitals into intelligent, responsive systems that are capable of significantly improving emergency preparedness, operational efficiency, and patient outcomes. Key application areas include site selection and design optimization, clinical decision support, AI-assisted clinical documentation and patient engagement, intelligent robotics, and operational management. However, realizing AI's full potential requires overcoming several challenges, including limited data accessibility, privacy and governance concerns, inadequate algorithmic adaptability in dynamic emergency settings, insufficient transparency and accountability in AI-driven decisions, fragmented system architectures due to proprietary formats, high costs disproportionate to the temporary nature of Fangcang shelter hospitals, and hardware reliability in austere environments. Addressing these challenges demands standardized data-sharing frameworks, development of explainable and robust AI algorithms, clear ethical and legal oversight, interoperable modular system designs, and active collaboration among multidisciplinary stakeholders.

OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress of intelligent remote follow-up modes in the application after hip and knee arthroplasty. METHODS: Extensive literature on this topic published in recent years both domestically and internationally was reviewed, and the application of intelligent remote follow-up modes after hip and knee arthroplasty was summarized and analyzed. RESULTS: The intelligent remote follow-up mode is a novel follow-up method based on network information technology. Patients who undergo hip and knee arthroplasty require long-term follow-up and rehabilitation guidance after operation. Traditional outpatient follow-up is relatively time-consuming and inconvenient for some patients in terms of travel and transportation, which makes the application of intelligent remote follow-up modes increasingly widespread worldwide. The inherent attributes of remote interaction and instant feedback of this mode make it particularly valued in the field of hip and knee arthroplasty. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based voice follow-up systems and virtual clinics have significant advantages in improving follow-up efficiency, reducing human resource costs, and enhancing patient satisfaction. CONCLUSION The existing intelligent follow-up system has formed a standardized protocol in remote follow-up and rehabilitation guidance. However, there are still shortcomings in the formulation of personalized rehabilitation plans and the gerontechnological adaptation of human-computer interaction. In the future, it is necessary to construct a multimodal data fusion platform and establish technical application guidelines for different rehabilitation stages.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of artificial intelligence-assisted compressed sensing (ACS) acceleration on MRI radiomic feature extraction and performance of diagnostic staging models for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in comparison with conventional parallel imaging (PI). METHODS: A total of 64 patients with newly diagnosed NPC underwent 3.0T MRI using axial T1-weighted (T1W), T2-weighted (T2W), and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (CE-T1W) sequences. Both PI and ACS protocols were performed using identical imaging parameters. The total scan time for the 3 sequences in ACS group was 227 s, representing a 30% reduction from 312 s in the PI group. Eighteen first-order and 75 texture features were extracted using Pyradiomics. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were calculated to assess the agreement between the two acceleration methods. After feature selection using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), random forest regression models were constructed to distinguish early-stage (T1 and T2) from advanced-stage (T3 and T4) NPC. The diagnostic performance of the models was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and compared using the DeLong test. RESULTS: ACS-accelerated images demonstrated good radiomic reproducibility, with 86.0% (240/279) of features showing good agreement (ICC>0.75), with mean ICCs for T1W, T2W and CE-T1W sequences of 0.91±0.09, 0.89±0.13 and 0.88±0.11, respectively. The staging prediction models achieved similar AUCs for ACS and PI (0.89 vs 0.90, P=0.991). CONCLUSIONS The MRI radiomic features extracted using ACS and PI techniques are highly consistent, and the ACS-based model shows comparable diagnostic performance to the PI-based model, but ACS significantly reduces the scan time and provides an efficient and reliable acceleration strategy for radiomics in NPC.
