GIN-CRC-Pareto improved identification of miRNA-mRNA interactions in colorectal cancer, achieving 0.909 accuracy and 0.969 AUC on binding pair prediction and outperforming existing tools.

Researchers described GIN-CRC-Pareto, a graph-based multi-task learning system designed to predict miRNA-mRNA binding pairs, identify seed match pairings, and classify seed match subtypes in colorectal cancer. By publication on 2026-09-05, experiments showed strong predictive performance including 0.909 accuracy and 0.969 AUC on the binding prediction task.

H2O AutoML trained on 4713 MESA participants using 21 selected predictors achieved higher discrimination than logistic regression and traditional ML models, reaching AUC 0.882 and accuracy 0.864, intended as a practical tool for clinician risk stratification.

In a prospective cohort analysis of 4713 participants from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis, researchers developed a 10-year CVD risk model integrating clinical, lifestyle, and cognitive measures. After selecting 21 predictors, they trained logistic regression, traditional machine learning models, and H2O AutoML, with AutoML achieving the highest performance at AUC 0.882 and accuracy 0.864 by the September 2026 publication date.

An ultrasound-based habitat subregional radiomics model using SVM achieved strong external validation for preoperative prediction of invasive breast cancer with concomitant DCIS, supporting preoperative risk stratification.

Researchers developed and externally validated an ultrasound-based habitat subregional radiomics model to predict invasive breast cancer with a DCIS component before surgery. Using 1063 patients across two centers, they delineated tumors on 2D ultrasound, clustered them into three intratumoral habitats, and built machine learning models evaluated by AUC, calibration, and decision curve analysis.

University EFL students receiving AI-mediated language instruction showed higher English achievement across grammar, vocabulary, reading and writing, plus increased L2 motivation and greater use of self-regulated learning strategies compared to traditional instruction.

In a mixed-methods study of 60 university EFL learners in two intact classes, researchers tested AI-mediated language instruction against traditional instruction. By November 2023, they reported that the AI group scored higher on post-tests of grammar, vocabulary, reading and writing, and reported higher L2 motivation and self-regulated learning strategy use, with 14 interviewed students describing more engaging, personalized experiences.

The evidence base for ML prediction of ART outcomes is limited by substantial heterogeneity and frequent high or unclear risk of bias, requiring prospective multi-center external validation before clinical use.

A systematic review and diagnostic meta-analysis of 20 studies, 14 in quantitative synthesis, evaluated machine learning models to predict clinical pregnancy or live birth after assisted reproductive technology. As of the August 2026 publication, pooled sensitivity was 0.737 and specificity 0.789 with a DOR of 10.49 and acceptable discrimination on SROC, but heterogeneity was very high.

LLM reasoning did not establish clinical equivalence in this limited evaluation and requires specialist oversight and further validation before clinical use.

Researchers compared large language models and clinicians on 34 real-world glaucoma cases, with glaucoma specialists scoring responses on medical accuracy, key-point recall, and logical completeness. AI models produced structured reasoning with weighted mean scores overlapping attending ophthalmologists and exceeding some residents.

Integrating AI and LLMs into medical education raises ethical concerns across privacy and data security, algorithmic bias, accountability, fairness, reliability, dependency, and patient autonomy.

Published October 22, 2025, this PLOS One scoping review examined literature on AI and large language models like ChatGPT in medical education. It found potential for personalized learning alongside a set of ethical challenges, synthesizing 50 studies from three major databases covering 2010 to August 2024.
