Gradient-boosted machine learning predicted carbapenem MICs from resistance gene profiles with strong performance for imipenem and ertapenem, supporting AMR surveillance.

A One-Health study analyzed 30,554 E. coli whole-genome sequences from human, animal and environmental sources across 126 countries from 2000 to 2025, using AMRFinderPlus and MLST to map resistance genes and clones, and applied gradient-boosted machine learning to predict MICs from gene profiles and chromosomal features.

Aurora foundation model outperforms operational forecasts for air quality, ocean waves, tropical cyclone tracks and high-resolution weather while running at orders of magnitude lower computational cost.

On May 21, 2025, a Nature peer-reviewed paper introduced Aurora, a large-scale foundation model trained on more than one million hours of diverse geophysical data. The authors report it outperforms operational forecasts for air quality, ocean wave dynamics, tropical cyclone tracks and high-resolution weather at orders of magnitude lower computational cost.

Most AI hypertension studies remain retrospective or internally validated, with few demonstrating external validation or gains in hard outcomes like cardiovascular events or mortality, plus barriers of bias, interpretability, and infrastructure.

A structured narrative review of literature from January 2015 to December 2025 examined AI for hypertension screening, diagnosis, risk stratification, treatment optimization and remote monitoring. It found ML models often outperformed conventional risk scores with AUCs of 0.75 to 0.90 and showed promise for personalized therapy and continuous monitoring.

Widespread use of synthetic AI companions risks emotional over-reliance, distorted expectations for human interaction, privacy harms, and altered norms of intimacy.

This review examines generative AI-enabled synthetic relationships, defined as ongoing associations with AI companions designed to simulate human-like bonds, as a potential intervention for loneliness where traditional approaches face availability and scalability limits.

AI-assisted retinal analysis faces implementation hurdles including lack of multicenter validation, need for prospective clinical trials, and unresolved data fusion and regulatory requirements.

A May 2026 review in Graefe's Archive describes AI combined with multimodal retinal imaging as a non-invasive approach to detect and monitor systemic vascular and neurodegenerative conditions. It outlines how fundus photography, OCT, OCTA and metabolic-sensitive imaging capture retinal vascular and nerve changes that reflect cardiovascular, metabolic and neurological disease, analyzed with deep learning and multimodal fusion.
