The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has led to significant transformations in health and healthcare. As AI technologies continue to evolve, there is an urgent need to establish a unified framework that guides the design, implementation, and evaluation of AI-driven interventions across individual and population health contexts.

To identify stigmatizing language in obstetric clinical notes using natural language processing (NLP).

To determine the efficacy of the mLab App, a mobile-delivered HIV prevention intervention to increase HIV self-testing in MSM and TGW.

The automatic detection of stance on social media is an important task for public health applications, especially in the context of health crises. Unfortunately, existing models are typically trained on English corpora. Considering the benefits of extending research to other widely spoken languages, the goal of this study is to develop stance detection models for social media posts in Spanish.

The predictive intensive care unit (ICU) scoring system is crucial for predicting patient outcomes, particularly mortality. Traditional scoring systems rely mainly on structured clinical data from electronic health records, which can overlook important clinical information in narratives and images.

The lack of a publicly accessible abdominal X-ray (AXR) dataset has hindered necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) research. While significant strides have been made in applying natural language processing (NLP) to radiology reports, most efforts have focused on chest radiology. Development of an accurate NLP model to identify features of NEC on abdominal radiograph can support efforts to improve diagnostic accuracy for this and other rare pediatric conditions.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology promises to be a powerful tool in addressing the global health challenges posed by tuberculosis (TB). However, evidence for its real-world impact is lacking, which may hinder safe, responsible adoption. This case study addresses this gap by assessing the technical performance, usability and workflow aspects, and health impact of implementing a commercial AI system (qXR by Qure.ai) to support Australian radiologists in diagnosing pulmonary TB.

Deidentification of personally identifiable information in free-text clinical data is fundamental to making these data broadly available for research. However, there exist gaps in the deidentification landscape with regard to the functionality and flexibility of extant tools, as well as suboptimal tradeoffs between deidentification accuracy and speed. To address these gaps and tradeoffs, we develop a new Python-based deidentification software, pyDeid.

There is no guidance to support the reporting of systematic reviews of mobile health (mhealth) apps (app reviews), so authors attempt to use/modify the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). There is a need for reporting guidance, building on PRISMA where appropriate, tailored to app reviews. The objectives were to describe the reporting quality of published mHealth app reviews, identify the need for, and develop potential candidate [...]

The continuous integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into clinical settings requires the development of up-to-date and robust guidelines and standard frameworks that consider the evolving challenges of AI implementation in medicine. This review evaluates the quality of these guideline and summarizes ethical frameworks, best practices, and recommendations.
