Researchers developed a nomogram using AI-derived CCTA measures of pericoronary adipose tissue and plaque plus HbA1c to predict progression of non-obstructive coronary lesions in T2DM patients.

Between 2019 and 2024, researchers retrospectively followed 114 patients with type 2 diabetes and non-obstructive coronary artery disease who had baseline CCTA. Using AI-derived measurements of pericoronary adipose tissue and coronary plaques combined with clinical labs, they built a logistic regression nomogram to distinguish 48 patients who later had infarction, revascularization, or stenosis 265 50% from 66 who did not.

Federated learning models trained on distributed patient data improved predictive performance over single-site local models across AUC, F1, sensitivity, PPV and PRAUC.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of 13 studies covering 247 sites and 158,435 patient samples evaluated federated learning models, mostly using FedAvg, against local and centralized models on diagnostic performance metrics.

Using Cox regression, SHAP analysis and 100-algorithm validation, researchers selected five autophagy-related core genes and built a prognostic model for lung adenocarcinoma that showed AUC > 0.9 in independent cohort GSE68465.

Researchers combined three lung adenocarcinoma GEO transcriptome datasets with a human autophagy gene set, identified 276 shared differentially expressed autophagy genes, and used protein interaction networks plus machine learning to select five core prognostic genes ENG, CDH1, KLF4, IL6 and MMP9, validating a model based on them in independent cohort GSE68465 with AUC > 0.9 by August 2026.

AI-assisted voter verification, biometric identification, and result-monitoring systems improved administrative coordination and voter-list accuracy in elections in Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines and Myanmar.

By October 2025, a peer-reviewed study examined AI use in electoral management in Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines and Myanmar between 2019 and 2024, finding that biometric voter identification, cyber-based registration, and real-time result monitoring streamlined administration and improved list accuracy, particularly amplifying coordination in Thailand.

People developing emotional entanglement with large language models and holding ceremonial weddings with AI personas reflects a broader transformation in the social organization of intimacy

As of its publication on 2026-05-30, this peer-reviewed paper introduced the 'Synthetic Lovers' framework to categorize artificial intimacy into digital, synthetic, and virtual forms. It analyzed contemporary cases such as emotional entanglement with large language models and ceremonial weddings with AI personas, arguing these are not anomalies but symptoms of change in how intimacy is organized

Unauthorised deepfakes cause disinformation, demeaning non-consensual pornographic content, and displacement of creative workers, which the current UK legal patchwork does not adequately address.

A March 2026 peer-reviewed paper in The Journal of World Intellectual Property asks whether deepfakes, digital replicas and human digital twins justify personality rights in the UK. It catalogues harms from unauthorised deepfakes, including spreading misinformation, non-consensual pornographic content, and displacing creative workers, and argues the existing patchwork of passing off, IP, defamation and criminal law is inadequate.

Generative AI threatens meaningfulness of creative work through deskilling, erosion of autonomy, worker isolation, and increased professional precarity.

This peer-reviewed paper examines how recent advances in Generative AI are transforming creative industries by affecting the meaningfulness of work. It applies a framework covering task integrity, skill cultivation, task significance, autonomy, and belongingness to specialist, embedded, and support creatives.
