According to news reporting originating from Beijing, People’s Re public of China, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “In recent epochs, t he field of critical medicine has experienced significant advancements due to th e integration of artificial intelligence (AI). Specifically, AI robots have evol ved from theoretical concepts to being actively implemented in clinical trials a nd applications.” Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from the Medical School of C hinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA), “The intensive care unit (ICU), known for its reliance on a vast amount of medical information, presents a promising aven ue for the deployment of robotic AI, anticipated to bring substantial improvemen ts to patient care. This review aims to comprehensively summarize the current st ate of AI robots in the field of critical care by searching for previous studies , developments, and applications of AI robots related to ICU wards. In addition, it seeks to address the ethical challenges arising from their use, including co ncerns related to safety, patient privacy, responsibility delineation, and cost- benefit analysis. Following the scoping review framework proposed by Arksey and O’Malley and the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Me ta-Analyses) guidelines, we conducted a scoping review to delineate the breadth of research in this field of AI robots in ICU and reported the findings. The lit erature search was carried out on May 1, 2023, across 3 databases: PubMed, Embas e, and the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Eligible publications were initially scr eened based on their titles and abstracts. Publications that passed the prelimin ary screening underwent a comprehensive review. Various research characteristics were extracted, summarized, and analyzed from the final publications. Of the 59 08 publications screened, 77 (1.3%) underwent a full review. These studies collectively spanned 21 ICU robotics projects, encompassing their system development and testing, clinical trials, and approval processes. Upon an exper t-reviewed classification framework, these were categorized into 5 main types: t herapeutic assistance robots, nursing assistance robots, rehabilitation assistan ce robots, telepresence robots, and logistics and disinfection robots. Most of t hese are already widely deployed and commercialized in ICUs, although a select f ew remain under testing. All robotic systems and tools are engineered to deliver more personalized, convenient, and intelligent medical services to patients in the ICU, concurrently aiming to reduce the substantial workload on ICU medical s taff and promote therapeutic and care procedures. This review further explored t he prevailing challenges, particularly focusing on ethical and safety concerns, proposing viable solutions or methodologies, and illustrating the prospective ca pabilities and potential of AI-driven robotic technologies in the ICU environmen t. Ultimately, we foresee a pivotal role for robots in a future scenario of a fu lly automated continuum from admission to discharge within the ICU. This review highlights the potential of AI robots to transform ICU care by improving patient treatment, support, and rehabilitation processes.”

De mographic and clinical details, operative techniques, and postoperative outcomes were collected and analyzed. Out of 82 patients who underwent robotic-assisted paraesophageal hernia repair, 17 were treated in the emergency setting. Median a ge was 79 years (IQR 77-85), 3 (17.6%) patients were male, and medi an BMI was 23.9 kg/m (IQR 21.0-26.0). Most frequent presentation symptoms were p ain (100 %), regurgitation (88.2%), and dyspnea (17.6% ). No intraoperative complication, conversion to open surgery or stomach resecti ons were recorded. Two complications of grade 3 according to the Clavien- Dindo c lassification and one of grade 2 occurred; all were successfully treated until r esolution. The median length of hospital stay was 8 days (IQR 5-16). After a mea n follow-up of 15.9 months (IQR 6.5-25.6) only two small axial asymptomatic recu rrences that required no treatment. Despite limitations, our study demonstrated a very low rate of intra- and postoperative complications, likely supporting the safety and feasibility of robotic-assisted treatment for paraesophageal hernias in emergency settings.”

According to news reporting from Nanjing, People’s Republic of China, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “Recently, a novel low-cost coding digi tal receiving array based on machine learning (ML-CDRA) has been proposed to red uce the required radio frequency channels in modern wireless systems. The spatia l sensitivity of ML-CDRA is studied which describes the spatial accumulation gai n in different directions.” Financial support for this research came from National Natural Science Foundatio n of China (NSFC). The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from the Nanjing Univ ersity of Science and Technology, “It is demonstrated that the spatial sensitivi ty is determined by the encoding network, decoding network, and beamforming crit erion. To obtain the desired spatial sensitivity, a spatial sensitivity synthesi s method is proposed based on the alternate projection by optimising the encodin g network with the constraint of amplitude-phase quantisation. Simulation result s show that the proposed method can significantly improve the spatial sensitivit y of ML-CDRA. Furthermore, in the directions of interest, the spatial accumulati on gain of ML-CDRA can exceed the full-channel digital receiving array. The spat ial sensitivity of a machine-learning-based coding digital receiving array (ML-C DRA) is studied which describes the spatial accumulation gain in different direc tions. It is demonstrated that spatial sensitivity is determined by the encoding network, decoding network, and beamforming criterion.”

Moreover, a modified theory for E HHSH is es tablished based on the XGBoost model and existing theory, and its exceptional pr edictive capability is verified by comparing with experimental, FE, and existing theoretical results. Finally, the upper and lower bounds of E HHSH are determin ed by the modified theory, and the Shapley Additive Explanation (SHAP) method is used to identify the importance of different geometric parameters on tailoring E HHSH.”

    New Machine Learning Study Findings Reported from Karlsruhe Institute of Technol ogy (KIT) (Machine Learning for Robust Structural Uncertainty Quantification In Fractured Reservoirs)

    72-72页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – Researchers detail new data in Machine Learning. According to news reporting out of Karlsruhe, Germany, by NewsRx edit ors, research stated, “Including uncertainty is essential for accurate decision- making in underground applications. We propose a novel approach to consider stru ctural uncertainty in two enhanced geothermal systems (EGSs) using machine learn ing (ML) models.” Financial support for this research came from Deutscher Akademischer Austausch D ienst (DAAD). Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the Karlsruhe Insti tute of Technology (KIT), “The results of numerical simulations show that a smal l change in the structural model can cause a significant variation in the tracer breakthrough curves (BTCs). To develop a more robust method for including struc tural uncertainty, we train three different ML models: decision tree regression (DTR), random forest regression (RFR), and gradient boosting regression (GBR). D TR and RFR predict the entire BTC at once, but they are susceptible to overfitti ng and underfitting. In contrast, GBR predicts each time step of the BTC as a se parate target variable, considering the possible correlation between consecutive time steps. This approach is implemented using a chain of regression models. Th e chain model achieves an acceptable increase in RMSE from train to test data, c onfirming its ability to capture both the general trend and small-scale heteroge neities of the BTCs. Additionally, using the ML model instead of the numerical s olver reduces the computational time by six orders of magnitude. This time effic iency allows us to calculate BTCs for 2 ‘ 000 different reservoir models, enabli ng a more comprehensive structural uncertainty quantification for EGS cases.”

According to news reporting originating from London, United Kingdom, by NewsRx correspondents, re search stated, “Pre-operative planning in total hip arthroplasty (THA), involves utilizing radiographs or advanced imaging modalities, including computerized to mography (CT) scans, for precise prediction of implant sizing and positioning. T his study aimed to compare Three-Dimensional (3D) versus Two-Dimensional (2D) pr e-operative planning in primary THA with respect to key surgical metrics, includ ing restoration of the horizontal and vertical Center of Rotation (COR), combine d offset, and leg length.” Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from University College Lond on (UCL) Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, “This study included 60 patients underg oing primary THA for symptomatic hip osteoarthritis, randomly allocated to eithe r robotic-arm-assisted or conventional THA. Digital 2D templating and 3D plannin g using the robotic software were performed for all patients. All measurements t o evaluate the accuracy of templating methods were conducted on the pre-operativ e CT scanogram, using the contralateral hip as a reference. Sensitivity analyses explored differences between 2D and 3D planning in patients who had supero-late ral or medial osteoarthritis patterns. Compared to 2D templating, 3D templating was associated with less medialization of the horizontal COR (-1.2 versus -0.2 m m, P = 0.002) and more accurate restoration of the vertical COR (1.63 versus 0.3 mm, P<0.001) with respect to the contralateral side. Furt hermore, 3D templating was superior for planned restoration of leg length (+0.23 versus -0.74 mm, P = 0.019). Sensitivity analyses demonstrated that in patients who had medial osteoarthritis, 3D planning resulted in less medialization of ho rizontal COR and less offset reduction. Conversely, in patients who had supero-l ateral osteoarthritis, there was less lateralization of horizontal COR and less offset increase using 3D planning. Additionally, 3D planning showed superior rep roducibility for stem, acetabular cup sizes, and neck angle, while 2D planning o ften led to smaller stem and cup sizes. Our findings indicated higher accuracy i n the planned restoration of native joint mechanics using 3D planning.”
