Ethics of training surgeons
➡️https://t.co/UoljZsLzUp

As societal norms change, patients expect more transparency and shared decision-making. Paradigms in surgical education are also shifting, with new technologies and greater recognition of the importance of trainee well-being
As a collective effort to promote current and future human well-being, it is a deeply ethical endeavour. The complexity of this landscape, where the perspectives and needs of each group are interdependent, requires careful ethical examination and justifies a framework to inform the choices that are made
Committing to the behaviours and principles identified in the framework is a starting point for those who wish to promote an ethically sound approach to training surgeons

Anthropic is the first one introducing an open clean protocol to connect their model Claude to any personal Computer, website, API, server etc.💫
Interesting? Yes!!! When brought to a save level this process will let any AI do what you are doing in Cyberspace🫱🏽🫲🏽

[Alex Albert @alexalbert__]

Here's a quick demo using the Claude desktop app, where we've configured MCP:

Watch Claude connect directly to GitHub, create a new repo, and make a PR through a simple MCP integration.

Once MCP was set up in Claude desktop, building this integration took less than an hour.

Interesting FDA insight:

“The FDA’s first approval of a partially AI-enabled medical device took place in 1995, when the FDA approved PAPNET, a software that used neural networks to prevent misdiagnosis of cervical cancer in women undergoing Papanicolaou tests.“

[JAMA Surgery @JAMASurgery]

Up to 82% of pregnant surgeons experience miscarriage, preterm delivery, and intrauterine growth restriction. Occupational hazards, including prolonged standing, physical exertion, overnight shifts, and teratogenic exposure, contribute to these risks.

The ISGPS pancreas classification is valid 👍
@AnnalsofSurgery @ISGPS_news
https://t.co/uE8GtfDxlv
POPF rates for classes A to D: 9%, 11%, 20% and 37% ↗️
All trialists are asked to report the classification in their cohorts for better comparability 🎯

Thank you so much @CammaLab and all for organizing the great #SurgicalDataScience school!! My team loved it (despite getting very little sleep)!

And congrats to Leon et al. for winning the best group project award 🏆

New evidence on resection of pancreatic neck tumors:

- Distal Pancreatectomy associated with less adequate lymphadenectomy
- No OS benefit of total pancreatectomy if complete resection is possible with a partial pancreatectomy.

Der nicht gegebene Handelfmeter nach Musialas Schuss in der Verlängerung hätte das Spiel wohl für uns entschieden. Der Schiedsrichter war der schlechteste Mann auf dem Platz…
