Title: Readability and Comprehension in Radiology Reports and Patient Education: A Comprehensive Review


Author:
Part: Vol.25 Issue 1

Abstract: Readability in radiology documentation is critical for effective communication between healthcare professionals and patients. Radiology reports and Patient Education Materials (PEMs) often contain complex technical language that can hinder patient understanding, leading to potential miscommunication and reduced patient satisfaction. This article explores the significance of readability in radiology, emphasizing the importance of making these documents accessible to non-specialist audiences. The objective of this article is to review the current challenges in radiology documentation readability and explore strategies for improvement. Recent studies have identified significant issues with the complexity of radiology reports and PEMs, noting that many exceed the recommended reading levels for the general population[Carmody et al., 2019]. Additionally, the transition from narrative to structured reporting has had mixed effects on readability, highlighting the need for further research and innovation [Friedman et al., 2006].

Title: Non-invasive spectrometric method for determining glucose concentration in human blood


Author:
Part: Vol.25 Issue 1

Abstract: Near-infrared spectroscopy is considered the most promising method for measuring blood glucose levels without drawing blood. However, this method alone does not allow the proportion of absorbed light attributable to glucose to be isolated. This paper proposes an improved spectroscopic method with software wavelength tuning that solves this problem.

Title: Beneficial Food Combined with Laser Treatment for Autism

Abstract: All autistic children have difficulties communicating with other people. This definitely shows that a problem can be expected with their Chakra of Communication or Throat Chakra (Chakra #5 on Fig. 1). Chakras arethe running along the backbonechain of alternating vortices (spinning clockwise) and anti-vortices (spinning counter clockwise)(Fig. 1)of the weak nonlinear electromagnetic field (NEMF)of the aura, which is our emotional Spirit. (We are a material body and emotional Spirit that activates the body. When a person dies and the Spirit leaves, the material body is an empty lifeless shell). To be able to measure the weakfield of the activating aura (Spirit), which is 1,000 times weaker than the field of the material body, (but rules and regulates everything in the body not with its strength but with the information it carries), I had to create a very sensitive equipment.

Title: Development of a diagnostic algorithm for identification of non-tuberculous mycobacteria species and drug sensitivity


Author:
Part: Vol.25 Issue 1

Abstract: Diagnosis and management of non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections remain formidable due to their nonspecific clinical presentation, environmental persistence and adaptability, and intrinsic drug resistance to existing treatments. The diverse species exhibiting variable drug susceptibility and lacking standardised treatment regimens make the precise identification of NTM species more critical. Therefore, precise and prompt species-level identification is paramount to confirm diagnosis, suggest appropriate therapeutics to improve patient outcomes. NTM infections often mimic tuberculosis, leading to frequent misdiagnosis, inappropriate therapy, and increased morbidity. Compounding this, advanced molecular tools required for precise identification are limited inresource-constrained setups. Moreover, no robust diagnostic algorithm exists for accurately identifying NTM at the species level.
