When providing helpful information isn ’t enough: A web-based intervention to address insulin worries
Welcome to another episode of BDI Briefs! Our aim with BDI Briefs is to take a brief look at important issues about the emotional side of diabetes. In this short discussion, Scott, Bill, and Susan have a thought-provoking discussion exploring a groundbreaking study titled “Is insulin right for me?”, which delves into the challenges of encouraging people with type two diabetes to consider insulin as a treatment option.

In the Long Run, Even Baseline Humans Will Live for a Very, Very Long Time
It is at present somewhat out of style to point out that, yes, obviously, it will be possible in the future to ensure that humans live for a very, very long time. That will be true for even baseline humans lacking all of the various genetic modifications one might propose a future scientific community to be capable of, modifications to introduce the numerous distinct forms of resilience to the mechanisms of mammalian aging exhibited by naked mole-rats, whales, elephants, bats and so forth. Control over aging is a subset of control over molecules and their positions. To be as reductionist as possible, degenerative aging is ...

A Senolytic Vaccine Targeting SAGP Reduces Pathology in a Mouse Model of Alzheimer ' s Disease
In this study, the research team created an Alzheimer's disease mouse model that mimics a human brain and simulates amyloid-beta-induced Alzheimer's disease pathology. To test the efficacy of the SAGP vaccine, the mice were treated with a control vaccine or the SAGP vaccine at two and four months old. Usually, people in the late stage of Alzheimer's lack anxiety, which means they are not aware of the things around them. The mice who received the vaccine had anxiety, which means that they were more cautious and more aware of things around them - a sign researcher say could indicate a lessening of the disease. In addition, s...

Leveraging Great People and AI to Improve Revenue Cycle Outcomes
When TruBridge, a revenue cycle division of CPSI, decided to automate more of their operations, they didn’t just ask managers to choose. They brought all their employees together in a “dream factory” to make and vote on suggestions. They got 250 from the staff, who then got to choose which ones they wanted to implement. In this video, General Manager Pat Murphy describes how TruBridge benefits from its “people-first culture” and how it uses AI, particularly to avoid claims denials. Payer denials are increasing heavily, as many of us know from being patients. It doesn’t really matter whet...

What ChatGPT Means for Virtual-First Care
The following is a guest article by Erica Jain, Co-Founder and CEO at Healthie ChatGPT has been dominating headlines since its release in November. While the AI Chatbot has already led to some truly whimsical poetry, comedic greetings, and helpful travel suggestions, it has also started to raise questions about its application in healthcare. ChatGPT is revolutionizing the world – and this will hit healthcare, albeit a bit slower than other industries. Healthcare is inherently conservative and resistant to change, plus liability in a care setting is a massive issue. All that being said, in the 5 to 10-year time horizo...

A love letter to the doctor I was
I recently returned to the hospital where I had first worked as an attending. Everything felt different. It seemed darker and smaller, reminiscent of the feeling when you revisit your elementary school, and the water fountains appear almost touching the ground, making you feel like a giant. I walked through the same door I had Read more… A love letter to the doctor I was originally appeared in KevinMD.com.

Can Hallucinated AI Help with Patient Engagement?
The following is a guest article by Michelle X. Zhou, Ph.D., Co-Founder and CEO at Juji ChatGPT and similar AI applications have given humankind a new tool. While this new tool is powerful, it may not always be reliable. Hence the term “AI hallucinations” is coined to refer to such unreliable AI performance. Here is an example. I asked ChatGPT, “Who founded Juji“, the AI startup I co-founded. It hallucinated with the following reply: It got several facts wrong including my education. I received my Ph.D. from Columbia University, not Carnegie Mellon University. Moreover, Juji was co-founded by Dr. H...
