This review article examines the utility of artificial intelligence (AI) in anesthesia, with a focus on recent developments and future directions in the field. A total of 19,300 articles were available on the given topic after searching in the above mentioned databases, and after choosing the custom range of years from 2015 to 2023 as an inclusion component, only 12,100 remained. 5,720 articles remained after eliminating non-full text. Eighteen papers were identified to meet the inclusion criteria for the review after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The applications of AI in anesthesia after studying the articles were in favor of the use of AI as it enhanced or equaled human judgment in drug dose decision and reduced mortality by early detection. Two studies tried to formulate prediction models, current techniques, and limitations of AI; ten studies are mainly focused on pain and complications such as hypotension, with a P value of <0.05; three studies tried to formulate patient outcomes with the help of AI; and three studies are mainly focusing on how drug dose delivery is calculated (median: 1.1% ± 0.5) safely and given to the patients with applications of AI. In conclusion, the use of AI in anesthesia has the potential to revolutionize the field and improve patient outcomes. AI algorithms can accurately predict patient outcomes and anesthesia dosing, as well as monitor patients during surgery in real time. These technologies can help anesthesiologists make more informed decisions, increase efficiency, and reduce costs. However, the implementation of AI in anesthesia also presents challenges, such as the need to address issues of bias and privacy. As the field continues to evolve, it will be important to carefully consider the ethical implications of AI in anesthesia and ensure that these technologies are used in a responsible and transparent manner.

Managing the massive losses associated with large-scale disasters requires significant resources. The unexpected violence of these events generally remains a matter of casualties that urgently need to be identified in a reliable and cost-effective manner. To overcome these difficulties, many researchers have attempted to develop automated methods; moreover, a few recent research have investigated the applicability of artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods using skull, dental, and maxillofacial forensic imaging. In this review, we speculate on the advancement and potential of AI in Dental and Maxillofacial imaging that can help simplify person or victim identification and speed up the process with good accuracy. Using a few prefix search phrases, an online literature search was conducted (AI, Forensic, Skull, Dental, Imaging, Radiology) to identify papers about the advancement of AI in forensic dentistry in all kinds of radiographs, including two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) radiographs, cone beam computed tomography (CT) and CT. Most of the studies reported that automated methods of human identification based on 2D and 3D Dental and Skull radiographs using a convolutional neural network showed to assist in the fast and accurate identification by expertise evaluating a lot of images and quickly coming up with potential matches for identification. We advocate the application of AI techniques in the identification of individuals. However, there is a need to continue research with emphasis to validate models in skull identification.

Chat generative pretrained transformer (ChatGPT) is a conversational language model powered by artificial intelligence (AI). It is a sophisticated language model that employs deep learning methods to generate human-like text outputs to inputs in the natural language. This narrative review aims to shed light on ethical concerns about using AI models like ChatGPT in writing assistance in the health care and medical domains. Currently, all the AI models like ChatGPT are in the infancy stage; there is a risk of inaccuracy of the generated content, lack of contextual understanding, dynamic knowledge gaps, limited discernment, lack of responsibility and accountability, issues of privacy, data security, transparency, and bias, lack of nuance, and originality. Other issues such as authorship, unintentional plagiarism, falsified and fabricated content, and the threat of being red-flagged as AI-generated content highlight the need for regulatory compliance, transparency, and disclosure. If the legitimate issues are proactively considered and addressed, the potential applications of AI models as writing assistance could be rewarding. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Modern image analysis techniques based on artificial intelligence (AI) have great potential to improve the quality and efficiency of diagnostic procedures in pathology and to detect novel biomarkers. Despite thousands of published research papers on applications of AI in pathology, hardly any research implementations have matured into commercial products for routine use. Bringing an AI solution for pathology to market poses significant technological, business, and regulatory challenges. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive overview and advice on how to meet these challenges. We outline how research prototypes can be turned into a product-ready state and integrated into the IT infrastructure of clinical laboratories. We also discuss business models for profitable AI solutions and reimbursement options for computer assistance in pathology. Moreover, we explain how to obtain regulatory approval so that AI solutions can be launched as in vitro diagnostic medical devices. Thus, this paper offers computer scientists, software companies, and pathologists a road map for transforming prototypes of AI solutions into commercial products. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Referral is a dynamic process, in which a health worker at one level of the health system, having insufficient resources (drugs, equipment, skills) to manage a clinical condition, seeks the help of a better or differently resourced facility at the same or higher level to assist in. Health care systems of every country are designed in such a way to encourage patients to first attempt to get care at the primary level and then to approach a higher level of care according to the need. This protocol minimizes the costs for the caretaker/patients. However, in most of the countries, patients often bypass primary care facilities and directly go to the higher center thereby, increasing the burden on higher level facilities, the picture is not very different in India also. Health care system in India is plugged by: overpopulation, lack of expert clinicians, skewed distribution of physicians, lack of motivation among existing health care personnel and an ineffective referral mechanism. Due to failure of conventional paper-based referral systems in our country, we can introduce an e-referral system in the era of internet. It is evident from our experiences, that this artificial intelligence enabled e-referral system has many advantages over the traditional paper-based referral system. It will aid health workers for timely management of cases. Most importantly, it will streamline the existing unorganized referral process. Although, for effective e-Referral system, there should be a collaborative platform where easy search and discovery for health care providers is possible and help in decision making. e- Referral should be incorporated in our health system to strengthen it by bridging the access gap may be through Public Private Partnership model.

ELECTRONIC health records ,ARTIFICIAL intelligence ,IMMUNIZATION ,ALLERGIES ,MEDICAL care - Abstract
A paradigm shift in human evolution, from our predecessors, the 'hunter-gatherers' to the 'era of digital revolution', has made certain human skills more and more machine driven. This digital revolution has made possible a constant connectivity, wearable technologies, customized platforms, enormous data storage and cloud computing at high speeds, smart phones and apps, internet of things, artificial intelligence, telemedicine, etc. These have made real-time monitoring and interventions possible in healthcare. Most advanced countries have made electronic health records (EHR) mandatory. The Government of India has an agenda of Digital India and digital healthcare and might insist on EHRs. EHR is a real-time, patient-centered digital version of a patient's paper record/chart, available instantly and securely to authorized users. EHR contains a patient's medical history, diagnosis, medications, treatment plans, immunization dates, allergies, radiological images, and laboratory results. It can access evidence-based tools that help to make safer decisions about a patient's care with enhanced decision support, clinical alerts, reminders and medical information. The procedure is also more reliable for dispensing medications and introduces the convenience of e-prescriptions. While the advanced technology and digital devices are well received by the healthcare providers, universal acceptance of the EHRs is far from achieving its full potential. The author, in this paper, discusses the current scenario and issues concerned with EHRs in the digital healthcare. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Nanotechnology with artificial intelligence (AI) can metamorphose medicine to an extent that has never been achieved before. AI could be used in anesthesia to develop advanced clinical decision support tools based on machine learning, increasing efficiency, and accuracy. It is also potentially highly troublesome by creating insecurity among clinicians and allowing the transfer of expert domain knowledge to machines. Anesthesia is a complex medical specialty, and assuming AI can easily replace the expert as a clinically sound anesthetist is a very unrealistic expectation. This paper focuses on the association and opportunities for AI developments and deep learning with anesthesia. It reviews the current advances in AI tools and hardware technologies and outlines how these can be used in the field of anesthesia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Purpose: Glaucoma is one of the preeminent causes of incurable visual disability and blindness across the world due to elevated intraocular pressure within the eyes. Accurate and timely diagnosis is essential for preventing visual disability. Manual detection of glaucoma is a challenging task that needs expertise and years of experience.Methods: In this paper, we suggest a powerful and accurate algorithm using a convolutional neural network (CNN) for the automatic diagnosis of glaucoma. In this work, 1113 fundus images consisting of 660 normal and 453 glaucomatous images from four databases have been used for the diagnosis of glaucoma. A 13-layer CNN is potently trained from this dataset to mine vital features, and these features are classified into either glaucomatous or normal class during testing. The proposed algorithm is implemented in Google Colab, which made the task straightforward without spending hours installing the environment and supporting libraries. To evaluate the effectiveness of our algorithm, the dataset is divided into 70% for training, 20% for validation, and the remaining 10% utilized for testing. The training images are augmented to 12012 fundus images.Results: Our model with SoftMax classifier achieved an accuracy of 93.86%, sensitivity of 85.42%, specificity of 100%, and precision of 100%. In contrast, the model with the SVM classifier achieved accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and precision of 95.61, 89.58, 100, and 100%, respectively.Conclusion: These results demonstrate the ability of the deep learning model to identify glaucoma from fundus images and suggest that the proposed system can help ophthalmologists in a fast, accurate, and reliable diagnosis of glaucoma.

Background: Patient education is an essential component of improving public health as it empowers individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary for making informed decisions about their health and well-being. Primary care physicians play a crucial role in patients' education as they are the first contact between the patients and the healthcare system. However, they may not get adequate time to prepare educational material for their patients. An artificial intelligence-based writer like ChatGPT can help write the material for physicians. Aim: This study aimed to ascertain the capability of ChatGPT for generating patients' educational materials for common public health issues in India. Materials and Methods: This observational study was conducted on the internet using the free research version of ChatGPT, a conversational artificial intelligence that can generate human-like text output. We conversed with the program with the question - "prepare a patients' education material for X in India." In the X, we used the following words or phrases -- "air pollution," "malnutrition," "maternal and child health," "mental health," "noncommunicable diseases," "road traffic accidents," "tuberculosis," and "water-borne diseases." The textual response in the conversation was collected and stored for further analysis. The text was analyzed for readability, grammatical errors, and text similarity. Result: We generated a total of eight educational documents with a median of 26 (Q1-Q3: 21.5-34) sentences with a median of 349 (Q1-Q3: 329-450.5) words. The median Flesch Reading Ease Score was 48.2 (Q1-Q3: 39-50.65). It indicates that the text can be understood by a college student. The text was grammatically correct with very few (seven errors in 3415 words) errors. The text was very clear in the majority (8 out of 9) of documents with a median score of 85 (Q1-Q3: 82.5-85) in 100. The overall text similarity index was 18% (Q1-Q3: 7.5-26). Conclusion: The research version of the ChatGPT (January 30, 2023 version) is capable of generating patients' educational materials for common public health issues in India with a difficulty level ideal for college students with high grammatical accuracy. However, the text similarity should be checked before using it. Primary care physicians can take the help of ChatGPT for generating text for materials used for patients' education.

Ye, Shengzhen and Chen, Mingling
- Abstract
Dermatology, as a highly intuitive clinical discipline, requires dermatologists to apply their own knowledge and clinical experience to make a reasonable diagnosis for various skin diseases. However, the diagnosis results are largely affected by the subjective consciousness of dermatologists, and there is a certain misdiagnosis rate, especially in areas with low medical levels. Therefore, there is an urgent need for more accurate, objective, and efficient auxiliary diagnostic tools to improve the diagnostic level of skin diseases. Facing an increasing number of patients and higher requirements for accurate diagnosis of diseases, Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has attracted considerable attention in the field of dermatology. As a nonorganism, the computer is not affected by subjective consciousness, emotion, fatigue, and other factors in the recognition process. It helps to improve the efficiency of diagnosis and assists human doctors to provide objective and accurate diagnosis results. This paper systematically summarizes the research progress of AI in the diagnosis and application of skin cancers, acne, rosacea, onychomycosis, psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis, and eczema diseases at home and abroad in recent years, hoping to help dermatologists have a deeper understanding of AI.

Automated clinical decision support systems (CDSS) are knowledge-based systems that provide patient-specific information and data to clinicians at the proper time for enhancing the clinical workflow of hospital organizations. Nowadays, it is adopted by most of the health care professionals for clinical decision-making that helps to reduce the adverse clinical care events occurring during the treatment. In this article, we present a recent literature review on the adoption of computer-based CDSSs in the area of health care based on qualitative and quantitative techniques, published between 2007 and 2022. For this purpose, we searched Google Scholar and identified different adoption factors by using textual analysis from the included publications. We then ranked the different factors based on the total number of occurrences and represented them as a conceptual framework. A total of 14 different adoption factors were found from 13 studies, among them the usefulness of the system is the most prominent factor that influences the adoption of CDSS to a great extent. This literature review and the framework could be helpful to researchers and healthcare professionals working in the field of technology adoption, providing an overall idea of factors and techniques in this field of research. We have also mentioned the limitations and future research gaps of different studies, which will help the researchers to take an initiation towards these types of research. We also conducted a case study on adoption of fully automatic digital blood pressure monitor and identified that "usefulness" and "ease of use" could influence the adoption of fully automatic digital blood pressure monitor system.

Background: Free-text sections of pathology reports contain the most important information from a diagnostic standpoint. However, this information is largely underutilized for computer-based analytics. The vast majority of NLP-based methods lack a capacity to accurately extract complex diagnostic entities and relationships among them as well as to provide an adequate knowledge representation for downstream data-mining applications. Methods: In this paper, we introduce a novel informatics pipeline that extends open information extraction (openIE) techniques with artificial intelligence (AI) based modeling to extract and transform complex diagnostic entities and relationships among them into Knowledge Graphs (KGs) of relational triples (RTs). Results: Evaluation studies have demonstrated that the pipeline's output significantly differs from a random process. The semantic similarity with original reports is high (Mean Weighted Overlap of 0.83). The precision and recall of extracted RTs based on experts' assessment were 0.925 and 0.841 respectively (P <0.0001). Inter-rater agreement was significant at 93.6% and inter-rated reliability was 81.8%. Conclusion: The results demonstrated important properties of the pipeline such as high accuracy, minimality and adequate knowledge representation. Therefore, we conclude that the pipeline can be used in various downstream data-mining applications to assist diagnostic medicine. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

As a complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) represents an established medical system with a rich history and abundant clinical experience. TCM is an empirical medicine, the process of which is analogous to ChatGPT's learning and development model. In TCM, inquiry is a relatively objective way of traditional syndrome differentiation. Although various artificial intelligence systems related to TCM consultation exist, their interactive abilities remain limited. The study standardized the primary complaint and instructed ChatGPT to simulate a TCM practitioner, conducting three comprehensive inquiry tests. The results yielded unexpected conclusions, revealing that ChatGPT could simulate a TCM practitioner's inquiry with patients, confirming its potential in the field of TCM inquiry. However, current applications still pose certain limitations and risks. Hence, to integrate ChatGPT-like language models with traditional TCM AI to establish an associative mode that can facilitate TCM diagnosis and treatment with more convenience and standardization is crucial, yet at the same time, it should be treated very carefully.

Halitosis, commonly known as oral malodor, is a multifactorial health concern that significantly impacts the psychological and social well-being of individuals. It is the third most frequent reason for individuals to seek dental treatment, after dental caries and periodontal diseases. For an in-depth exploration of the topic of halitosis, an extensive literature review was conducted. The review focused on articles published in peer-reviewed journals and only those written in the English language were considered. The search for relevant literature began by employing subject headings such as 'halitosis, oral malodor, volatile sulfur compounds, artificial intelligence, and olfaction' in databases such as PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and EMBASE. Additionally, a thorough hand search of references was conducted to ensure the comprehensiveness of the review. After amalgamating the search outcomes, a comprehensive analysis revealed the existence of precisely 134 full-text articles that bore relevance to the study. Abstracts and editorial letters were excluded from this study, and almost 50% of the full-text articles were deemed immaterial to dental practice. Out of the remaining articles, precisely 54 full-text articles were employed in this review. As primary healthcare providers, dentists are responsible for diagnosing and treating oral issues that may contribute to the development of halitosis. To effectively manage this condition, dentists must educate their patients about the underlying causes of halitosis, as well as proper oral hygiene practices such as tongue cleaning, flossing, and selecting appropriate mouthwash and toothpaste. This narrative review summarises all possible AI olfaction in halitosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming an important part of our lives owing to increased data availability and improved power of computing. One of the recently launched modalities of AI, ChatGPT, is being enormously used worldwide for different types of tasks. In medical context, its use is being explored for clinical queries, academia, research help, etc. Further, literature suggests that parents seek information about health of their children using different Internet resources and would surely turn toward ChatGPT for the same, as this chatbot model is easy to use, generates “one” response, and is available without any subscription. ChatGPT generates a response using text cues and applying different algorithms on prepublished literature but is still in its naïve state; hence, it is imperative to validate the generated responses. Accordingly, we planned this study to determine the clarity, correctness, and completeness of some Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about child’s oral health, from a mother’s perspective. Methods: The study design was a vignette‑based survey and included a set of 23 questions, for which ChatGPT was interviewed from the perspective of an imaginary parent. The answers responded by ChatGPT were copied “verbatim,” and a Google survey form was designed. The survey form was validated and then sent to 15 pediatric dentists, and the responses were mainly collected on the Likert’s scale with a provision of one open‑ended question aiming to determine “what they would have added” to this generated response as an expert in the field. Results: The responses on Likert’s scale were condensed and values ≥4 were considered ‘adequate and acceptable’ while scores ≤3, were considered ‘inadequate’. The generated responses and comments mentioned by different respondents in the open‑ended question were critiqued in reference to the existing literature. Conclusion: Overall, the responses were found to be complete and logical and in clear language, with only some inadequacies being reported in few of the answers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Reported cases of uncontrolled use of pesticides and its produced effects by direct or indirect exposition, represent a high risk for human health. Therefore, in this paper, it is shown the results of the development and execution of an algorithm that predicts the possible effects in endocrine system in Fisher 344 (F344) rats, occasioned by ingestion of malathion. Methods: It was referred to ToxRefDB database in which different case studies in F344 rats exposed to malathion were collected. The experimental data were processed using Naïve Bayes (NB) machine learning classifier, which was subsequently optimized using genetic algorithms (GAs). The model was executed in an application with a graphical user interface programmed in C#. Results: There was a tendency to suffer bigger alterations, increasing levels in the parathyroid gland in dosages between 4 and 5 mg/kg/day, in contrast to the thyroid gland for doses between 739 and 868 mg/kg/day. It was showed a greater resistance for females to contract effects on the endocrine system by the ingestion of malathion. Females were more susceptible to suffer alterations in the pituitary gland with exposure times between 3 and 6 months. Conclusions: The prediction model based on NB classifiers allowed to analyze all the possible combinations of the studied variables and improving its accuracy using GAs. Excepting the pituitary gland, females demonstrated better resistance to contract effects by increasing levels on the rest of endocrine system glands. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) theory explains how, over a period of time, an idea or behavior diffuses (or spreads) through a targeted population or society. The major thing about adoption is that the people must perceive the idea, behavior, or product as new or innovative and it should be useful to them. The more the perceived benefit, the quicker is the diffusion. Same thing can be expected for adoption of new technology in healthcare also. In this paper, we have described two novel breast cancer screening technologies and have concluded that implementation of a new technology should consider the cultural aspect and mindset of local people so that quick diffusion of healthcare technology takes place among all segments in our society to make it a better world.

Dear Editor, Systematic reviews and meta-analyses play an invaluable role in the practice of evidence-based medicine.[[1]] Unfortunately, the process is time-consuming, on average requiring 67 weeks to sift through all available literature, collate relevant data, and analyze results to form conclusions.[[2]] However, recent advances in natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning have enabled "artificial intelligence" (AI) to "learn" through algorithms and assist with text classification and data extraction.[[3]] Semi-automation, with "human-in-the-loop" systems, can potentially assist with several labor-intensive steps of the systematic review process and make it faster.[[1]],[[3]] Nevertheless, skepticism as to the accuracy of automated tools exists which presents a barrier to their widespread acceptance.[[1]],[[3]] Two independent investigators conducted a systematic database search of PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov. The time taken both for the article selection and data extraction was lower for the search conducted with AI assistance [Figure 1]. [Extracted from the article]

With the progress in refractive cataract surgery, more intraocular lens (IOL) power formulas have been introduced with the aim of reducing the postoperative refractive error. The postoperative IOL position is critical to IOL power calculations. Therefore, the improvements in postoperative IOL position prediction will enable better selection of IOL power and postoperative refraction. In the past, the postoperative IOL position was mainly predicted by preoperative anterior segment parameters such as preoperative axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and corneal curvature. In recent years, some novel methods including the intraoperative ACD, crystalline lens geometry, and artificial intelligence (AI) of prediction of postoperative IOL position have been reported. This article attempts to give a review about the research progress on prediction of the postoperative IOL position. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: To quantifiably assess the diagnostic accuracy of Adven‑I, a proprietary artificial intelligence (AI)‑driven diagnostic system that automatically detects diseases from fundus images. The purpose is to quantify the performance of Adven‑i in differentiating a nonreferable (within normal limits) image from a referable (diseased fundus) image and further segregating diabetic retinopathy (DR) from the rest of the abnormalities (non‑DR) encompassing the wide spectrum of abnormal pathologies. The assessment is carried out in comparison to manual reading as the reference gold standard. Adven‑i is the only AI system classifying retinal abnormalities into DR and non‑DR classes separately, apart from predicting nonreferable fundus, while most existing systems classify fundus images into referable and nonreferable DR. Methods: The double‑blinded study was conducted on retrospective data collected over the course of a year in the ophthalmology outpatient department (OPD) at a top Tier II eyecare hospital in Chandigarh, India. Three vitreoretina specialists who were blinded to one another read the images. The ground‑truth was generated on the basis of majority agreement among the readers. An arbitrator’s decision was regarded final if all three readers disagreed. Results: 2261 fundus images were analyzed by Adven‑i. The sensitivity and specificity of Adven‑i in diagnosing images with abnormalities were 95.12% and 85.77%, respectively, and for segregating DR from rest of the retinal abnormalities were 91.87% and 85.12%, respectively. Conclusions and Relevance: Adven‑i shows definite promise in automated screening for early diagnosis of referable fundus images including DR. Adven‑i can be adopted to scale for mass screening in resource‑limited settings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The application of artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of ophthalmology has garnered significant attention for its potential to enhance the accuracy of eye disease diagnosis. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to comprehensively assess the impact of AI on diagnosing eye diseases through the synthesis of existing research. A systematic search of electronic databases was conducted to identify relevant studies in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses protocol. Eligible studies were those that reported the diagnostic accuracy of AI in ophthalmic image diagnosis. The standardized mean difference (SMD) and mean difference (MD) were utilised as the effect size measures to evaluate AI performance. A total of 18 studies meeting the inclusion criteria were selected for the quantitative synthesis. Further, the meta-analysis revealed that AI exhibited a substantial positive impact on the accuracy of diagnosing eye diseases. The overall SMD across various diagnostic parameters indicated a statistically significant improvement (SMD = 0.88, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.71–1.05). Moreover, the MD of diagnostic values demonstrated significant enhancements, with an overall MD of −10.2 (95% CI: −12.1 to −8.3). The selected studies consistently demonstrated that AI achieved high accuracy levels, reinforcing its potential as a valuable tool in ophthalmic diagnosis. This study provides significant evidence supporting the significant positive impact of AI on diagnosing eye diseases. The synthesis of the selected studies underscores the high accuracy achieved by AI in ophthalmic image diagnosis, as indicated by the substantial SMD and MD improvements. These findings highlight the promising role of AI in ophthalmology, offering the potential to revolutionise the field and improve patient care through enhanced diagnostic precision.

The potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in diagnosing and managing sexually transmitted infections (STIs), nonvenereal genital diseases, and overall sexual health is immense. AI shows promise in STI screening and diagnosis through image recognition and patient data analysis, potentially increasing diagnostic accuracy while ensuring inclusivity. AI can fuel the transformation of e-health and direct-to-consumer services, enhancing targeted screening and personalized interventions while improving the user-friendliness of services. There is a significant role for AI in sexual education, particularly its use in interactive, empathetic chatbots. AI's integration into health care as a decision support tool for primary health-care providers can boost real-time diagnostic accuracy. Furthermore, AI's use in big data can enhance real-time epidemiology, predictive analysis, and directed interventions at population levels. However, challenges such as real-world diagnostic accuracy, liability, privacy concerns, and ethical dilemmas persist. Future directions include an emphasis on inclusivity, language accommodation, and swift research-to-practice transitions. Collaboration among policymakers, researchers, and health-care providers is needed to leverage AI's transformative potential in sexual health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
