Why It Is Important To Understand Multimodal Large Language Models In Healthcare  
The future of medicine is undoubtedly inextricably linked to the development of artificial intelligence (AI). Although this revolution has been brewing for years, the past few months marked a major change, as algorithms finally moved out of the specialized labs and into our daily lives.  The public debut of Large Language Models (LLMs), like ChatGPT which became the fastest-growing consumer application of all time, has been a roaring success. LLMs are machine learning models trained on a vast amount of text data which enables them to understand and generate human-like text based on the patterns and structures they̵...

OMI Pocket Guide
  📕OMI Pocket Guide TheOMI Pocket Guide (https://omiguide.org) is a user-friendly online resource designed to help healthcare professionals learn how to recognize subtle signs of acute coronary occlusion on the ECG which represent occlusion myocardial infarctions (OMI). Learning to recognize OMIs is an important clinical skill because it helps identify the subpopulation of " NSTEMIs " who are likely to be found with total thrombotic occlusion at the time of cardiac catherization.Although there are more criteria to consider when looking for OMIs compared to STEMIs, anyone can learn them, and this guid...

Reviewing the all-in-pod heart health segment
BY ANISH KOKA The All-in podcast is a fairly popular show that features successful silicon valley investors commenting about everything worth commenting on from politics to health. The group has good chemistry and interesting insights that breaks the mold of the usual tribal politics that controls legacy media analysis of current events. Last week, the podcast touched on a topic I spend a fair amount of time on: Cardiology. Brad Gerstner, who is actually a guest host for this particular episode starts off by referencing something called Heartflow to evaluate the heart that has been recommended by one of the o...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, July 17th 2023
In conclusion, the longevity-associated genotype of FLT1 may confer increased lifespan by protecting against mortality risk posed by hypertension. We suggest that FLT1 expression in individuals with longevity genotype boosts vascular endothelial resilience mechanisms to counteract hypertension-related stress in vital organs and tissues.

Reviewing Efforts to Use Cells and Scaffolds to Regenerate the Heart
The heart is one of the least regenerative tissues in the body. Damage resulting from loss of blood flow during a heart attack leads to scarring and loss of function, rather than any meaningful degree of regeneration. While preventing the atherosclerosis that causes occlusion of blood vessels is the most desirable goal, finding ways to repair a damaged heart is also a high priority for the research community. Many groups have worked towards regenerative therapies based on delivery of cells and scaffolding material, even layers of artificial tissue made by combining the two, but progress has been frustratingly slow. ...

63 year old with " good story for ACS " but negative troponins.....
 This was texted to me from a former resident, while working at a small rural hospital, with the statement:" I can ’t convince myself of anything here, but he’s a 63-year-old guy with prior stents and a good story for ACS. "  (Chest pain or discomfort)What do you think?Here was my response:" Suspicious for inferior posterior OMI.  Get serial ECGs "He then sent a previous from 4 years prior:" This is totally normal, which confirms that the first EKG does indeed represent OMI "Then the patient ' s chest pain resolved and he recorded another:The ST depression in aVL is gone and the T-waves are less hyperacu...

What is Fontan Paradox?
The term Fontan Paradox was coined by Marc de Leval in 2005 as paradox seen in Fontan circulation with caval hypertension, mainly in the splanchnic region and relative pulmonary arterial hypotension [1,2]. According to him, in a normal biventricular circulation, the mean caval pressures are less than 10 mm Hg and the mean pulmonary arterial pressure is at least 15 mm Hg to keep the pulmonary vasculature patent. He further suggested that a mechanical device capable of producing a step down in pressure energy of 5 mm Hg in the inferior vena cava and producing a step up of 5 mm Hg in the pulmonary arteries could potentially ...

ChatGPT Misses the Mark in Healthcare – What It Needs to Succeed
The following is a guest article by Michael Blum, MD, Cardiologist, Co-founder and CEO at BeeKeeperAI and Former Chief Medical Information Officer at UCSF Medical Center The advent of OpenAI’s ChatGPT3 (GPT3) Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered chatbot sparked an unprecedented societal appreciation for the power of AI. While AI has been broadly deployed across industries for a decade, it remained mostly hidden from the typical user. The release of GPT3 in late 2022 changed all of that.  Suddenly, a user with minimal computer literacy and no programming or data science training whatsoever could ask an AI-based applicati...

How RPM Can Reduce AI ’s Bias Problem & Improve Health Equity
The following is a guest article by Arnaud Rosier, PhD, Founder and CEO at Implicity Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the most promising breakthrough technologies of the modern healthcare era, yet it also has the potential to be one of the most dangerous. AI algorithms that are trained on limited or poorly representative data sets can exhibit signs of bias in their results, skewing decision-making and possibly leading to ethnic, gender, and social discrimination and other unintentional consequences for the patients they serve. Unfortunately, research shows that bias is already creeping into the nascent field of AI an...
