    Abstract Study objectives: We evaluated the accuracy of ChatGPT in addressing insomnia-related queries for patient education and assessed ChatGPT's ability to provide varied responses based on differing prompting scenarios.
    Methods: Four identical sets of 20 insomnia-related queries were posed to ChatGPT. Each set differed by the context in which ChatGPT was prompted: no prompt, patient-centered, physician-centered, and with references and statistics. Responses were reviewed by 2 academic sleep surgeons, 1 academic sleep medicine physician, and 2 sleep medicine fellows across 4 domains: clinical accuracy, prompt adherence, referencing, and statistical precision, using a binary grading system. Flesch-Kincaid grade-level scores were calculated to estimate the grade level of the responses, with statistical differences between prompts analyzed via analysis of variance and Tukey's test. Interrater reliability was calculated using Fleiss's kappa.
    Results: The study revealed significant variations in the Flesch-Kincaid grade-level scores across 4 prompts: unprompted (13.2 ± 2.2), patient-centered (8.1 ± 1.9), physician-centered (15.4 ± 2.8), and with references and statistics (17.3 ± 2.3,
    Conclusions: ChatGPT can be used to generate clinically accurate responses to insomnia-related inquiries.

    Abstract In order to explore the creep characteristics of red clay under different pressures, the stress–strain curve and stress–strain–time curve of red clay under different pressures were obtained, and the triaxial shear and creep characteristics of red clay under different pressures were analysed. A triaxial shear test and creep test were carried out on red clay from Guilin as the research object under different pressures. The results show that: ➀ the cohesion and the angle of internal friction of red clay from Guilin, obtained from a triaxial shear test, are 57.20 kPa and 22.47°, respectively; ➁ according to the physical meaning of the parameters of the Burgers creep model, a simple and practical parameter inversion method is proposed, which can be used to obtain the parameters of the Burgers model for red clay under different perimeter pressures and differing deviatoric stress; and ➂ when comparing the calculation results with the test results, the correlation coefficients R 2 of the two are above 0.9, with a good fitting effect, so the model can accurately describe the creep characteristics of red clay from Guilin. This study can provide a theoretical basis and technical support for engineering construction in the red clay area of Guilin.

    Abstract Adipokines are a growing group of peptide or protein hormones that play important roles in whole body metabolism and metabolic diseases. Sleep is an integral component of energy metabolism, and sleep disturbance has been implicated in a wide range of metabolic disorders. Accumulating evidence suggests that adipokines may play a role in mediating the close association between sleep disorders and systemic metabolic derangements. In this review, we briefly summarize a group of selected adipokines and their identified function in metabolism. Moreover, we provide a balanced overview of these adipokines and their roles in sleep physiology and sleep disorders from recent human and animal studies. These studies collectively demonstrate that the functions of adipokine in sleep physiology and disorders could be largely twofold: (1) adipokines have multifaceted roles in sleep physiology and sleep disorders, and (2) sleep disturbance can in turn affect adipokine functions that likely contribute to systemic metabolic derangements.

    Abstract Adipokines are a growing group of secreted proteins that play important roles in obesity, sleep disturbance, and metabolic derangements. Due to the complex interplay between adipokines, sleep, and metabolic regulation, an integrated approach is required to better understand the significance of adipokines in these processes. In the present study, we created and analyzed a network of six adipokines and their molecular partners involved in sleep disturbance and metabolic dysregulation. This network represents information flow from regulatory factors, adipokines, and physiologic pathways to disease processes in metabolic dysfunction. Analyses using network metrics revealed that obesity and obstructive sleep apnea were major drivers for the sleep associated metabolic dysregulation. Two adipokines, leptin and adiponectin, were found to have higher degrees than other adipokines, indicating their central roles in the network. These adipokines signal through major metabolic pathways such as insulin signaling, inflammation, food intake, and energy expenditure, and exert their functions in cardiovascular, reproductive, and autoimmune diseases. Leptin, AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK), and fatty acid oxidation were found to have global influence in the network and represent potentially important interventional targets for metabolic and sleep disorders. These findings underscore the great potential of using network based approaches to identify new insights and pharmaceutical targets in metabolic and sleep disorders.

    Abstract Medical image synthesis plays an important role in clinical diagnosis by providing auxiliary pathological information. However, previous methods usually utilize the one-step strategy designed for wild image synthesis, which are not sensitive to local details of tissues within medical images. In addition, these methods consume a great number of computing resources in generating medical images, which seriously limits their applicability in clinical diagnosis. To address the above issues, a Light and Effective Generative Adversarial Network (LEGAN) is proposed to generate high-fidelity medical images in a lightweight manner. In particular, a coarse-to-fine paradigm is designed to imitate the painting process of humans for medical image synthesis within a two-stage generative adversarial network, which guarantees the sensitivity to local information of medical images. Furthermore, a low-rank convolutional layer is introduced to construct LEGAN for lightweight medical image synthesis, which utilizes principal components of full-rank convolutional kernels to reduce model redundancy. Additionally, a multi-stage mutual information distillation is devised to maximize dependencies of distributions between generated and real medical images in model training. Finally, extensive experiments are conducted in two typical tasks, i.e., retinal fundus image synthesis and proton density weighted MR image synthesis. The results demonstrate that LEGAN outperforms the comparison methods by a significant margin in terms of Fréchet inception distance (FID) and Number of parameters (NoP).
