Artificial intelligence-supported double reading in European population breast cancer screening: A systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective programs.

BACKGROUND: Most European population mammography screening programs rely on double reading with arbitration, a model that delivers mortality benefit but is increasingly challenged by radiologist workload, variable specificity, and interval cancers. Artificial intelligence (AI) is being evaluated to support or optimize these established European screening pathways. PURPOSE: To synthesize prospective or program-embedded evaluations of AI conducted within European-style population screening programs and to estimate exploratory program-level absolute risk differences (RDs) per 1000 examinations for cancer detection rate (CDR) and recall. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a prespecified, focused evidence synthesis of three large studies embedded within routine population screening programs operating under European-relevant workflows: MASAI (randomized AI-supported risk triage within a national program), ScreenTrustCAD (prospective paired-reader evaluation with AI as an independent reader in a double-reading framework), and PRAIM (nationwide decision-referral implementation). Outcomes were harmonized as AI-control RDs per 1000 examinations. Random-effects pooling used Hartung-Knapp-Sidik-Jonkman models. For the paired-reader design, sensitivity analyses applied a Kish effective sample-size approach across plausible within-examination correlations (ρ = 0.3-0.8). Positive predictive value (PPV) and workflow/time outcomes were summarized descriptively. RESULTS: Across 597,419 examinations, the pooled CDR RD was +0.9 per 1000 (95% CI -0.0 to +1.8; I2 ≈ 12%), consistent with a modest directional increase with borderline statistical uncertainty. The pooled recall RD was -0.6 per 1000 (95% CI -3.1 to +2.1; I2 ≈ 41-43%), indicating no consistent recall increase across screening programs. Where reported, PPV was higher with AI-supported screening. Efficiency signals included 44.3% fewer total readings in MASAI and shorter reading times for AI-normal examinations in PRAIM; in PRAIM, a program-level safety-net mechanism recovered 204 cancers that would otherwise have been missed. CONCLUSION: In European population screening programs characterized by double reading and arbitration, prospective program-embedded evidence suggests that AI integration may yield a small absolute increase in cancer detection (≈1/1000) without a consistent increase in recall, alongside improved PPV and efficiency signals. These findings suggestAI primarily as a complementary reader within European screening workflows, with implementation requiring explicit quality assurance and monitoring of interval cancers and stage distribution.

Effects of six weeks of guanidinoacetic acid supplementation with and without creatine monohydrate on cognitive function and markers of health in healthy adults.

BACKGROUND: Guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) supplementation has been reported to increase brain creatine content more effectively than creatine monohydrate (CrM). However, the effects on cognitive function are unclear. PURPOSE: The purpose of this proof-of-concept exploratory clinical trial was to determine whether GAA supplementation with and without CrM affects cognitive function and/or markers of health. METHODS: In a double-blind, randomized, and counterbalanced manner, 58 healthy and active adults (33 females, 35.5&#x2009;&#xb1;&#x2009;14 years, 76.2&#x2009;&#xb1;&#x2009;14 kg) ingested a PLA (PLA, 2 &#xd7; 6 g/d maltodextrin), GAA (2 &#xd7; 1 g/d)&#x2009;+&#x2009;PLA (2 &#xd7; 5 g/d), or GAA (2 &#xd7; 1 g/d)&#x2009;+&#x2009;CrM (2 &#xd7; 5 g/d) for six weeks. The participants donated fasting blood samples and completed a battery of tests and questionnaires assessing various aspects of function, mood, stress, sleep quality, and markers of health at baseline and after six weeks of supplementation. Data were analyzed using General Linear Model (GLM) multivariate and univariate with repeated measures, and mean changes from baseline with 95% confidence intervals, and Chi-squared analysis, and considered significant when the probability of error was 0.05 or less, and approaching significance (p&#x2009;>&#x2009;0.05-p&#x2009;<&#x2009;0.10). RESULTS: GAA supplementation tended to improve overall reaction time (-241.8&#x2009;ms [-533, 50], p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.10) while significant interaction effects were observed in overall reaction time (p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.031-330 ms [-629, -31]) and YES reaction time (-290&#x2009;ms [-484, -96], p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.004) while recalled correct reaction time (-178&#x2009;ms [-374, 21], p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.078) and recalled correct YES (7.4 % [-1, 15.8], p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.084) approached significance compared to PLA. Limited to no effects were observed on the Delayed Picture Recognition Task Test, Digit Vigilance Task Test, Corsi Block Task Test, or Stroop Color-Word Task Test. The amount of time engaged in moderate physical activity was significantly greater (p&#x2009;<&#x2009;0.05) in the GAA group compared to PLA. Participants in the GAA group reported a lower frequency of controlling irritations (p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.036), and feeling like difficulties are mounting (p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.053) on the Perceived Stress Scale. Some positive and potentially undesirable effects were observed in sleep quality assessments. The quality of life assessment revealed that participants in the GAA group reported less frequent feelings of being worn out (p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.068) and that their health was excellent (p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.092) while those in the GAA&#x2009;+&#x2009;CrM group reported more frequent limitations when bending, kneeling, or stooping (p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.053), more often feeling full of life (p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.081), and less frequency in feeling downhearted and depressed (p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.066). No clinically meaningful changes were observed in blood markers or self-reported side effects among the groups. CONCLUSION: Dietary supplementation with GAA (2 g/d) and the combination of CrM (10 g/d&#x2009;+&#x2009;GAA 2 g/d) for six weeks improved delayed verbal episodic recognition memory and retrieval speed and some measures of perceived stress, sleep quality, and quality of life. However, most cognitive tests were not affected, particularly when comparing the GAA to the PLA group; there were some inconsistencies in the findings, and several differences only approached significance. Additional research is needed before conclusions can be drawn. Clinical trial registration: ISRCTN68542582.

Effectiveness of Embedded Social Media Content on E-cigarette Attitudes and Behaviors: Results from a Randomized Control Trial.

BACKGROUND: This longitudinal randomized controlled trial examined the effects of anti-vaping social media content on e-cigarette attitudes and intentions among U.S. young adults (ages 18-24; n=3,400). METHODS: Targeted content was embedded directly into participants' social media feeds, with varying levels of impressions. RESULTS: Results indicate that increased exposure to anti-vaping messages significantly elevated perceived risk of harm (&#x3b2;=0.11, 95% CI: 0.03-0.20, p < .01) and social unacceptability of e-cigarette use (&#x3b2;=0.10, 95% CI: 0.03-0.18, p < .01), while decreasing intentions to vape (RRR = 0.59, 95% CI: 0.36-0.97, p < .05). Notably, these attitudinal shifts occurred even with relatively low ad exposure and over an extended intervention period, while controlling for the e-cigarette use status (never, former, or current) of participants. Discussion These findings support the effectiveness of digital media campaigns in influencing health-related behaviors and attitudes among young adults. Specifically, embedding anti e-cigarette content directly in the feed of young adults is shown to be effective in shifting attitudes in a space where these young adults are already engaged. Limitations include limited ad impressions and minimal change in ad awareness recall, suggesting future research should explore longer interventions and broader nicotine product messaging.

Patterns and implications of co-use between vaping and hallucinogens: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: The co-occurrence use of e-cigarettes and hallucinogens has become increasingly common, particularly among youth and young adults. However, evidence regarding the association between these behaviors remains limited and fragmented. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to synthesize current evidence, examining the correlation between hallucinogen use and the likelihood of being an e-cigarette user. METHODS: A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane CENTRAL up to June 2025. Eligible studies measured both hallucinogen and e-cigarette use and reported quantitative associations between these behaviors. Data extraction and risk-of-bias assessments were performed independently by three reviewers using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Pooled effect sizes were calculated using a random-effects model (REML). Certainty of evidence was evaluated with the GRADE approach. RESULTS: Eleven studies met the inclusion criteria (n&#xa0;=&#xa0;247,904), and seven were included in the meta-analysis (n&#xa0;=&#xa0;217,478). The pooled analysis demonstrated that hallucinogen users had 4.47 times higher odds of being e-cigarette users (OR: 4.47, 95% CI 2.72 to 7.34; p&#xa0;<&#xa0;0.001; I2&#xa0;=&#xa0;95.7%, n&#xa0;=&#xa0;7). The certainty of evidence was rated as low. CONCLUSIONS: Hallucinogen use is directionally and strongly associated with e-cigarette use across diverse populations. Although the direction of association was consistent across studies, the magnitude of effect was heterogeneous. These behaviors likely share psychosocial and environmental determinants, although alternative explanations, including shared genetic liability, recall bias, and residual confounding, cannot be excluded. Further longitudinal studies are needed to clarify the underlying mechanisms of this association and establish temporality. The findings also support integrating hallucinogen-use screening into e-cigarette prevention and harm-reduction programs targeting youth and young adults.

Development, feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary impact of NutriSOS&#xae;: A behavioral mobile app to promote sustainable diets.

The primary objective of this study was to describe the development of the NutriSOS&#xae; app and to evaluate its feasibility and acceptability for its use in the NutriSOS&#xae; Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) to promote sustainable diets. A secondary objective was to explore preliminary changes in dietary and physical activity behaviors and environmental impact following app use. The NutriSOS&#xae; app integrates personalized dietary advice, educational content, self-monitoring, and social interaction features. A single-arm, pre-post pilot study was conducted in 37 young Mexican adults over four weeks. Feasibility, acceptability, quality, and usability were assessed using online surveys, alongside exploratory changes in dietary and physical activity behaviors, environmental indicators, and their association with perceived behavioral determinants. Feasibility and acceptability were high overall, with favorable responses reaching up to 100% in key components such as the nutritional guide and learning modules, and above 90% for messaging, registration, and design. Greater variability was observed in some sections, particularly the 24-h recall (41-86%). Reductions in red and processed meat and ultra-processed food consumption were observed (from 3 to 1 times/week, p&#xa0;<&#xa0;0.01), with &#x223c;60% decreases in their related environmental footprints (p&#xa0;<&#xa0;0.01) and favorable self-reported behavioral determinants (p&#xa0;<&#xa0;0.0001). Physical activity type and intensity changed (p&#xa0;<&#xa0;0.05). These findings support NutriSOS&#xae; as a feasible and acceptable tool, while highlighting areas for refinement, particularly those related to the time and effort required for data entry, prior to its implementation in the NutriSOS&#xae; RCT, in which its effectiveness will be formally evaluated.
