Evaluating Harm Reduction Advice From Large Language Models

Drug and Alcohol Review, Volume 45, Issue 7, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Large language models (LLM) and generative Artificial Intelligence are increasingly providing health information. We have applied a novel method to evaluate the harm reduction information generated by popular LLMs. We focused on the filtration of oral medications for injection and the availability of local harm reduction services.

U turn to venous air embolism

Indian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2009
There is a definitive risk of venous air embolism when the fluid infusion is complete and the drip set is still open in a glass bottle.We have devised a novel way of preventing the chances of air embolism when the fluid in the glass bottle finishes. It really gives a "U" turn to the chances of venous air embolism.

Extreme Polyploidy Reveals Functional Trade‐Offs in Plant Drought Responses

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 8697-8711, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Polyploidy shapes plant physiology and anatomy, yet the extent to which different ploidy levels influence drought responses remains unclear. Here, we investigated how ploidy affects cell‐level coordination and functional traits associated with water transport and retention.

Ischaemic strokes caused by spontaneous cerebral air embolism, a rare complication of interstitial lung diseas

European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine
Air embolism is a rare cause of ischaemic stroke. It is known that air can enter the cerebral arterial circulation from pulmonary venous circulation through a bronchovenous fistula, or in cases of pulmonary barotrauma in deep-sea diving.
