Pathogenic Genetic Variants, Comorbid Autism and Adaptive Developmental Quotient as Independent Predictors of Intellectual Disability in Children With Global Developmental Delay: An Interpretable Machine Learning Model With Calibrated Risk Estimation

Background Global developmental delay (GDD) frequently precedes intellectual disability (ID), but no validated multivariable prognostic tool exists to support individualised counselling during the initial diagnostic work-up. Existing risk indicators are typically considered in isolation, and their joint contribution within an interpretable predictive framework remains uncertain. Methods We retrospectively analysed 2453 children diagnosed with GDD between January 2014 and December 2023 at a provincial tertiary ch…

From accuracy to service: deciding what artificial intelligence outputs may do in veterinary diagnostic laboratories

Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are entering veterinary diagnostic laboratory service, but reported model accuracy does not determine what the laboratory staff should allow an output to do. This Commentary defines service entry as the point at which an AI output is allowed to influence case triage, interpretation, a draft report, or result release. Before that point, the laboratory staff should first decide whether the submitted specimen can support the question being asked. They should then document 7 decisi…

Dynamic liquid with shape-shifting induced photocurrent variation in a CuBi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> film for antimicrobial biocide recognition

Antimicrobial biocides play a crucial role in infection control. Although traditional detection methods are accurate, they are cumbersome to operate, require trained personnel, and provide only basic recognition without intelligent analysis. Therefore, given the critical role of biocide type and concentration in effective disinfection, there is an urgent need for portable and intelligent monitoring technologies. Here, we present an optical sensor based on an ITO/CuBi 2 O 4 /LaNiO 3 heterojunction. The device fea…

A Risk Prediction Model for Normal-Tension Glaucoma Progression Integrating Genetic Markers and Corneal Biomechanics

Objective Normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) is characterized by progressive optic nerve damage despite intraocular pressure remaining consistently within the normal range. Predicting disease progression in patients with confirmed NTG remains challenging. This study aimed to develop and validate an interpretable machine learning model integrating genetic risk scores and corneal biomechanical parameters to predict progression risk in patients with NTG, identify independent predictors, and quantify the contribution of…

An Umbrella Review of Artificial Intelligence Applications in Mental Health Care

Background Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in mental health care to address rising demand, workforce shortages and access barriers; however, evidence remains scattered across multiple systematic reviews, limiting synthesis and practical application. Objective To synthesise evidence on AI applications in mental health care, including trends, uses, benefits, challenges and risk-mitigation strategies, guided by an ethics of care framework. Methods This umbrella review of systematic reviews followe…

‘I feel like I’m at war’: are we losing the battle against machine-made music?

This year, the battle for song of the summer has been eclipsed by a much more complicated – some would even say disturbing – debate. That’s because we find ourselves asking not “What’s the song of the summer?” but rather “Is the song of the summer even real?” Among the top contenders for the title is Fenix Flexin’s Rubberz, a single released in June that has ascended to No 58 on the Billboard Hot 100 and racked up more than 35m Spotify streams. It’s not the sort of fare Fenix usually cooks up. The artist is know…

UK to use Ukraine battlefield data to train AI to protect sensitive sites

AI models trained on Ukrainian battlefield data will be used to stop protesters and foreign states targeting UK defence sites, railways and energy plants under a deal struck between London and Kyiv. Private companies will also be given access to the vast trove of data from Ukraine’s Avengers AI lab to help build new systems, the first agreement of its kind in the UK. The scheme will be piloted at a UK defence site, building a model to identify protesters or a hostile-state attack. It uses AI-optimised sensors in…

Agentic AI in Newsrooms: Towards a multi-dimensional framework for evaluating trust, editorial accountability, and workflow quality

As artificial intelligence (AI) systems evolve from assistive to agentic capable of autonomous planning, decision-making, and content generation existing evaluation frameworks struggle to capture their broader organizational and ethical implications. Most assessments of newsroom AI focus narrowly on technical accuracy or efficiency, overlooking how such systems reshape trust, governance, and human collaboration. This study conducts a systematic literature review of 46 peer-reviewed and institutional sources (201…

Targeting GLS and LPIN2 in renal fibroblasts: potential therapeutic targets for kidney stone disease identified by integrated multi-omics analysis

Kidney stones (KS) are a common urological condition, the aetiology of which remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to investigate the key cell types involved in the formation of kidney stones and the molecular mechanisms associated with calcium metabolism. Single-cell and bulk RNA-seq datasets related to kidney stones were downloaded from the GEO database. Single-cell analysis was performed to explore the heterogeneity of kidney stones and identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Candidate gen…

The Lymph Node Ratio as a Predictive Biomarker for Individualized Benefit from Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Gastric Cancer: A Retrospective Cohort and Causal Machine Learning Study

Background Optimizing adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) for gastric cancer (GC) remains challenging due to patient heterogeneity. While the lymph node ratio (LNR) is a known prognostic factor, its role in predicting individualized AC benefit remains underexplored. This study aimed to leverage causal machine learning to explore LNR's role for personalized treatment. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 2,748 patients undergoing radical gastrectomy (2007-2017, re-staged by AJCC 8th edition). While the ful…
