    Case presentation: The patient suffered a witnessed out-of-hospital cardiac arrest following rescue from a free-flowing river, and underwent prolonged resuscitation. The patient presented in persistent ventricular fibrillation, unresponsive to defibrillation attempts. An oesophageal probe recorded the patient's temperature as 24°C. Rescuers were guided by the Resuscitation Council UK advanced life support algorithm to withhold drug therapy and limit defibrillation attempts to three, until the patient had been rewarmed to above 30°C. Appropriate triage of the patient to an extracorporeal life support (ECLS) capable centre allowed specialised treatment to be initiated, and culminated in successful resuscitation once normothermia was restored. After a short stay in intensive care, the patient was discharged for rehabilitation due to a hypoxic spinal cord injury before discharge home.
    Conclusion: This case highlights that hypothermia is a reversible cause of cardiac arrest, which needs to be recognised and acted upon appropriately to provide the best possible chance for a positive outcome. Low-reading thermometers capable of identifying the temperature thresholds stated in the Resuscitation Council UK guidelines are required, to allow clinicians to adapt their practice according to the presenting situation. Tympanic thermometers are often limited to their lowest recordable temperature, and invasive monitoring such as oesophageal or rectal probes are not common in UK ambulance service practice. With the necessary equipment, patients can be triaged to an ECLS-capable centre, allowing them to receive the specialist rewarming that they require.

    Abstract Purpose: The use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools to aid in summarizing information in medicine and research has recently garnered a huge amount of interest. While tools such as ChatGPT produce convincing and naturally sounding output, the answers are sometimes incorrect. Some of these drawbacks, it is hoped, can be avoided by using programmes trained for a more specific scope. In this study we compared the performance of a new AI tool (the-literature.com) to the latest version OpenAI's ChatGPT (GPT-4) in summarizing topics that the authors have significantly contributed to.
    Methods: The AI tools were asked to produce a literature review on 7 topics. These were selected based on the research topics that the authors were intimately familiar with and have contributed to through their own publications. The output produced by the AI tools were graded on a 1-5 Likert scale for accuracy, comprehensiveness, and relevance by two fellowship trained consultant radiologists.
    Results: The-literature.com produced 3 excellent summaries, 3 very poor summaries not relevant to the prompt, and one summary, which was relevant but did not include all relevant papers. All of the summaries produced by GPT-4 were relevant, but fewer relevant papers were identified. The average Likert rating was for the-literature was 2.88 and 3.86 for GPT-4. There was good agreement between the ratings of both radiologists (ICC = 0.883).
    Conclusion: Summaries produced by AI in its current state require careful human validation. GPT-4 on average provides higher quality summaries. Neither tool can reliably identify all relevant publications.
